AIN'T IT COOL with Harry Knowles: Episode VI: More Douglas Trumbull!! CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND, 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY, more on the future of cinema, advice to computer effects artists, and further badassity!!

 

Hey folks, Harry here...

 We've got at least one more Douglas Trumbull episode coming after this - and he wants to do more.  Personally, as a huge fan of his work - and as a geek that is vastly interested in the myriad of technologies he's developing - I feel giving Mr Trumbull as much time on AICN and my show is not just an honor, but a privilege.  

In this episode, he hits on some of what he's doing right now - but in addition to that, Douglas talks about his visual effects work on both CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND and 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY - the two big alien contact films of his career.   He also gives advice to Computer Visual Effects artists that I feel is something that everyone in the effects industry should heed.  

Now - sit back, click and lend your eyes and ears to the wondrous mind of Douglas Trumbull...
