I spent a couple of days this week at Monster FX in Chatsworth working on some great, 50’s style space suits. He’s teaching me all about the dying art of foam construction and I’m loving every minute of it. If you’ve ever seen Star Trek: First Contact, Buffy, Power Rangers or a host of other sci-fi / monster romps, you’ve seen Robert’s work. For a more complete list of credits see his IMDB page.

I’ve updated my digital effects resume effective July, 2008. Also, I have an interview on Friday with Red 5 Studios in the Irvine area. By all appearances its a very exciting company staffed by some really cool people. Startups are a lot of fun–I’m really looking forward to meeting everybody and showing them what I can do. If I believed in luck, I’d ask you to wish it to me!

It was my great pleasure to spend the last 4 days with actor and stuntman Kiran Shah on the set of Harvey Putter and the Ridiculous Premise. I was a little nervous going in because I’m a bit of an outsider on this production but apparently positive reviews preceded me and I gelled very well with both Cast and Crew.
