Description
Hello everyone! Today’s episode features the Visual Effects Supervisor and Visual Effects Producer Robert Stadd. I was fortunate enough to collaborate with Robert on our Netflix film We Have A Ghost. We get into some fascinating discussions about his work in VFX including the intersection of VFX and Costumes (especially on We Have A Ghost!) as well as covering his extensive film career, and the reasons he turned down Titanic and The Matrix! Also tune in to hear about working on the miniatures for The Crow & Crimson Tide as well how he made a monkey look like he’s smoking for The Hangover. If you head on over to the Patreon, there’s an extended version of the episode with more tales, like working with Michael Mann, designing his favorite shot from Miami Vice and how some Navy Seals accidentally had their hair turn green on Crimson Tide.  --- VFX Supervisor & VFX Producer Robert Stadd Credits include: War Dogs, The Hangover Part 2 & Part 3, The Laundromat, Ali, Collateral, Miami Vice, and Public Enemies --- Robert Stadd has supervised and produced the visual effects for We Have a Ghost, A Babysitter’s Guide to Monster Hunting, The Laundromat, Mortal Engines, War Dogs,  Hangover Part 2 and Part 3, Public Enemies, Miami Vice, Redline, Collateral, Ali, as well as producing the VFX for Nutty Professor (I & II),  Galaxy Quest, Liar Liar, Mighty Joe Young, My Fellow Americans, The Crow, Crimson Tide, The Mask, Hot Shots!, Defending Your Life Stadd directed Alien Siege for the Sy-Fi Channel, which had their highest viewership in five years when it played.  He has directed theater at the Off Main Street theater in Santa Monica as well as the Globe Playhouse in West Hollywood.  His webisode, The Ballad of Mary and Ernie has won multiple streaming awards. --- Robert Stadd Links: Instagram: @robertstadd Twitter: @rstadds IMDb: Robert Stadd --- TFACD Links: Patreon: Tales From A Costume Designer Instagram: @talesfromacostumedesigner Twitter: @talesfromaCD TikTok: @talesfromaCD --- Whitney Anne Adams Links: Website: whitneyadams.com IMDb: Whitney Anne Adams Instagram: @WAACostumeDesign Twitter: @WhitneyAAdams TikTok: @waacostumedesign Ko-Fi: @waacostumedesign --- Union Links: #NakedWithoutUs Website Pay Equity Now IG: @payequitynow Pay Equity Now TikTok: @payequitynow Costume Designers Guild IG: @cdglocal892 United Scenic Artists Local 829 IG: @unitedscenicartists Local USA 829 Pay Equity Task Force IG: @usa829payequity IATSE IG: @iatse
