| Science of Special Effects |
Filmmaking is an art, but
special effects are all about science. This program explores the dynamic
link between the sciences—from astronomy to zoology—and the film
industry’s finest special effects. Leading innovators explain many of
their techniques, illustrated with footage from dozens of movies and TV
programs, including Stuart Little, Fight Club, and The X-Files. Experts
include Stan Winston, Academy Award-winning creature creator whose work
includes Alien, Terminator II, and Jurassic Park; Phil Tippett, special
effects supervisor for Jurassic Park; Professor Donald Hoffman, who
specializes in cognitive and computer science; and Nick Foster, software
engineer for Antz. A Discovery Channel Production. (51 minutes, color)
