Career in Creatures: A Stan Winston Art Retrospective

sink in to viewWith the pitiful news earlier this week that extra effects professional Stan Winston had snuff it , Hollywood lost one of its master creature - makers . Though Winston ’s studio apartment did do some digital effects , Winston may have been one of the last great artists of the animatronic . With the help of a Brobdingnagian group of artists , sculptor , mechanically skillful engineers , and even ( at one point ) the Sociable Robotics research lab at MIT , Winston built everything from a life - sized dinosaur for Jurassic Park to the uncannily naturalistic teddy bear bot for the movie A.I. Artificial Intelligence . He also had a hand in some productions you might not have guessed , like seventies Wizard of Oz remake The Wiz with Diana Ross and Michael Jackson ( holy crap I bang that movie when I was a nestling ) . At the time of his decease , he was working on James Cameron ’s forthcoming Avatar , and Martin Scorcese ’s Shutter Island — but despite his association with primo managing director , his amazing creations have appeared in more than one cheesy - but - amazing movie , too . Below , we take you on a photographic spell of Winson ’s life history in creatures .
