DESCRIPTION:Phil Tippett\n\nPhil Tippett talks about the history of stop-motion animation\, touching on his great debt to predecessors such as Ray Harryhausen. He continues with his own extraordinary career that has gone from the jovial Doughboy to the bristling werewolves of the Twilight Saga. He concludes with an introduction to his creative participation in Starship Troopers\, which will screen immediately after the talk at 8:15.\n\nFollowed by: Starship Troopers (Paul Verhoeven\, U.S.\, 1997)\n\nBased on the late 1950s sci-fi novel by Robert A. Heinlein\, Starship Troopers is a sly antifascist satire about a mindless mobilization for intergalactic war. Drone-like citizens are sent off-planet to defeat an invading army of arachnoids. Phil Tippett’s Studio designed several categories of CGI bug—the Warriors\, the Tankers\, the Plasmas\, the Big Brain bug\, and others—that possess a startling accuracy in their simulation of mass and movement\, and then amazingly crafted the lifelike integration of insects and actors. In the more spectacular battle scenes\, literally hundreds of creepy-crawlies swarm the rocky terrain like lethal pests at a planetary picnic. Steve Seid\n\nWritten by Ed Neumeier\, based on the novel by Robert A. Heinlein. Photographed by Jost Vacano. Principal effects by Phil Tippett\, Scott E. Anderson\, Scott Squires\, Jim Rygiel. With Caspar Van Dien\, Dina Meyer\, Michael Ironside\, Denise Richards. (129 mins\, Color\, 35mm\, From Sony Pictures)
