Welcome to the science behind the cinematic special effects world in this comprehensive DVD from Discovery Channel Productions. Told through interviews with experts and footage from over a dozen movies, this film explores the direct correlation today's special effects industry has with science concentrations (like astronomy and even zoology).
Go even more in depth with interviews done with real Hollywood special effects workers, including special effects supervisor Phil Tippett (Jurassic Park), software engineer Nick Foster (Antz) and Academy Award winner Stan Winston (Alien, Jurassic Park and Terminator 2). Also included is input from Professor Donald Hoffman, a specialist in cognitive and computer science.
