Early VFX shot using sculpture

New film project in the works

At AIC I'm currently involved in a new film project. In addition to the animation work(I'll be creating a 50's Hot Rod that changwes in to a robot), I'm creating several costumes and prosthetics.
Here is a sneak peek at my work in progress "Ikar alien" that will make an appearance in the film devouring miniature humans. More info to come soon!

Becomming Commander Data

I spent the last few weeks putting together a Commander Data costume for Star Fest here in Denver. I ended up buying a Voyager pattern and adapting it into a First Contact-Nemesis uniform.

I bought a Nemesis "Dolphin phaser kit from Roddenberry.com, and painted it with gunmetal grey automotive paint



For the makeup I put on several layers of white water based face makeup by By Nye each sealed with a sealant, followed by a layer of gold metallic powder.
And of course yellow contacts


Starfest 2009
It was an amazing experience meeting Brent Spiner as Data. He loved the costume and we had a very funny conversation about white/gold makeup and yellow contacts. Brilliant guy, turns out we are even from the same neighborhood in Houston, Texas.
