TyRuben Ellingson is an exceptional Visual Effects Art Director who has worked on a ton of projects, including Star Wars: A New Hope (Special Edition).
Whether breaking his arm on Jurassic Park or drawing floating Jabbas, we dive into his story and career … and what George Lucas really said in that first Special Edition meeting. (He also goes on the record about his involvement, or lack thereof, on Greedo shooting first.)
From working with Guillermo del Toro and James Cameron to Tron 3 and Neil Blomkamp’s Alien 5, he tells such inspiring stories about his career and his journey.
His website with more of his designs and projects is definitely worth a vist: alieninsect.com

Next week is my conversation with someone talked about quite a few times in this episode and a bunch of our previous episodes: nine time Academy Award-winner Dennis Muren. Yeah, I can’t believe it either.
