Stan Winston

'I don't do special effects. I create characters, and I use the tools of special effects necessary to do it. Special effects, by themselves, don't mean diddley-squat in a movie. If the characters I created can't perform, can't act and aren't interesting, it just isn't going to work. It doesn't matter how good the technique is if you have not created interesting characters.'

A short article about Stan Winston, putting things a lot better than I would have managed.

RIP, Stan. You were The Man.
