About Me


I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6 !
I am currently the effects shop supervisor, and one of the digital effects animators at Precinct 13 Entertainment in Crestline, Ohio. I moved back to Ohio after 15 years in L.A. working in a variety of effects houses including KNB Effects, Rick Baker's Cinovation, Stan Winston Studio, Steve Johnson's XFX, Greg Cannom Creations, and.....well, just about every major shop in town (as well as a few of the smaller shops!)When the better half and I decided after 20 years of wedded bliss to do some begettin', we decided that SoCal was no place to send the kids if they wanted to get a decent education. Fortuitously, Bob Kurtzman (the "K" in KNB Effects) had also left California for his original birthplace and family, establishing Precinct 13 Entertainment in an ex-bowling alley in his hometown of Crestline, Ohio. Therefore, I could return to where the rest of my family lives, and still do the only job I know:Making monstersAfter a hectic 6 month flurry of activity doing the effects for a series of film called "The Horror Chronicles" in New Mexico, we are back into principle photography on the Precinct 13 Entertainment production of Bob Kurtzman's "The Rage" I am going to attempt to keep you, my dear reader, abreast of the happenings on a daily basis on the blog that is linked to this site. I should be starting this evening by catching you up on the week's worth of shooting that took place last fall, and the day of shooting flashbacks on the 3rd of August.Check out my sorta complete resume at www.alternative-realities.com , and get some pix and information for the Rage at www.theragefilm.comAl

"The Rage" thus far....

In the fall of  2005, P13 Entertainment shot for a single week on the mad laboratory set built inside our facility, creating the setup for the action for what was then called "Vultures". However,...
