Hi all,

I notice that a lot of people here are artists, etc. Wondering how may of you all are part of the film industry?

I was for over 15 years, and now I'm an Art Director (not in film though)

I was a 3D artist at places like ILM, Dreamworks, etc. in the layout dept.

I have also worked on quite a few comic movies:

Blade 2, Hellboy, Catwoman (ewww), Constantine, Fantastic Four, Iron Man (only a little), and Priest.  
I also worked on just one shot of Superman Returns. 

Anyone else?

I played Thor in the Avengers movies.

Usually don't like to mention it...seems like bragging...

I grew my hair out and asked my wife if I looked "Just like Thor now," and she couldn't even pretend to humor me.

At least you have hair! :sorry:

 

Funny story about hair - Some of you may remember YEARS ago the Steven Colbert show did the "Green Screen Challenge" and the punchline was at the end George Lucas' submission was the runner up -I worked on that submission at ILM and I am  even Steven's body double in a few scenes. How did I get picked for that role? I was the only man on the crew that had both a suit, and hair.

Im the construction coordinator (Im the one in charge of building the sets) on 2 hit shows, one for NBC (made by Sony) and one for CBS. Ive been in the business for almost 25 years, 3rd generation, and my father has been/is one of the biggest construction coordinators in NY for the past 40 years. The last comic related thing he ran was The Tick a few months ago.

Very cool Eclipse!  Did you or your dad work on the Nick Cage "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" when it shot in Manhattan a few years back?

I worked for Disney for about 2 and a half years, also worked for Cinedigm and WB. Just started doing a little work for WB again but haven't had a lot of spare time for freelance.

Redesigned poster artwork for digital download, made web ads, reworked backgrounds, clean up files created Title Treatments. Worked a bit on most Wave 1 Marvel movies and a few Wave 2 titles.  

I remember doing a bunch of work for Monsters University.

Yup, that was my dads job., i worked on it for 3 weeks when my show went on hiatus. That was one of the biggest jobs in NY at the time, and the set for that was amazing.
