Listen "Monster Maker Alec Gillis"
Episode Synopsis
David and Ryan are joined by living legend Alec Gillis to discuss his illustrious (and ongoing!) career as a creature designer and practical effects wizard. He tells the guys about his first job with Richard Corman, going to see Alien with James freaking Cameron, subsequently getting a job on James freaking Cameron's Aliens and building the infamous Alien Queen (first out of garbage bags), all before founding his own legendary FX company, ADI, with partner Tom Woodruff. Alec has made more monsters than you can collect! But that doesn't mean you shouldn't try. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
