THE MASTER OF SPECIAL EFFECTS" STAN WINSTON"

(APRIL 7,1946 - JUNE 15, 2008)


I always wondered how these English movies give us such mind blowing special effects.It has always made me think that how could anyone give life to something unimaginable. Well here he is STAN WINSTON the master of all special effects. I would just say he has captured the hearts of all youngsters by his eye catching special effects. But it is really sad to say that this famous person passed away this year (2008).He was a genuine inspiration for all and his works were highly appreciated by people all over the world.


MY MOST FAVOURITE- JURASSIC PARK

He has worked in a lot of movies. Some of the evergreen one's are


JURASSIC PARK (1993)

THE LOST WORLD-JURASSIC PARK (1997)

JURASSIC PARK III (2001)

TERMINATOR (1984)

TERMINATOR 2 (1991)

TERMINATOR 3 (2003)

ALIENS (1986)

A.I (2001)

CONSTANTINE (2005)

CONGO (1995)

END OF DAYS (1999)

PEARL HARBOUR (2001)

FRIDAY THE 13TH PART III (1983)

PREDATOR (1987)

IRON MAN (2008)


He has won 3 Oscars for the best visual effects for the films- Jurassic park,aliens, terminator2.He was also nominated for the best visual effects for most of the films mentioned above.His last film would be the comic book story the IRON MAN which has released this year, but there are films yet to be released such as TERMINATOR SALVATION , THE FUTURE BEGINS,G.I.JOE, AND JAMES CAMERON'S AVATAR.


It is really devastating that such a genius is not in the industry anymore. He created some of the fearsome creatures and gave us some of the rocking and mind blowing moments when we watch his works.Even if he is still not here in this industry, his fictional works will and always stay in our minds forever.
