Laika’s work on Kubo was just incredible, and although it hasn’t been a huge success, it showed off the magic that still exists in stop-motion animation. So I took at look at some present and previous innovations in the field, for Inverse.

I noticed researcher Hao Li was behind a new startup called Pinscreen which seemed to be doing some mysterious face tracking and AR app. So I talked to him about it for Inverse.

Inverse asked me to explore the history of dragons in vfx, so I went from stop motion to CG in this retrospective.

For Inverse, I wrote about some of the big developments, like original models, the first CG sequence in a feature film, TV VFX and the newest warp speed stuff for Beyond.

How the vfx team on Ghostbusters brought back Slimer, Stay Puft and used new innovations to make the ghosts possible (like LED’s on set). A new piece for Inverse.

They’re all big! Here’s a new article for Inverse on just some of the alien invasion kick-ass VFX shots in the film. More to come on IDR, too.
