Stan Winston RIP

This last month one the great visual effects and make up wizards Stan Winston died.
He had done some great creatures, including the Terminator, the Queen Alien, the Preditor, Edward Scissorhands, the T-rex in Jurassic Park and the none CGI Iron Man suit.
He worked with Steven Spielberg, Tim Burton and James Cameron many times.

There aren't many still in the model making business and he was the go too guy if you needed one. He Won 4 of the 9 Oscar's he was nominated for. He was a true legend.

This made me think that there are many people in the film business that get under thrown. You always hear about the Actors and Directors and they get the big awards, but films would be nothing without SFX, editing, music score, camera men, etc

So here are some amazing people (off the top of my head)
Danny Elfman (music)
Ray Harryhausen (SFX)
Ray Winston (SFX)
John Williams (music)
Frank and Ollie (animators)
