After the Lead Sculptor and the Art Dept established the language of the Formic architecture, the rest of the sculptors ran with it. The look was a combination of organic bone shapes and stretched taffy.<br />
Despite very tight deadlines, we got to create some really cool foam work and the rest of the trades brought it all together for some amazing looking sets.<br />
<br />
<b>SPOILER ALERT!!</b><br />
The sets we were part of building appear in the final act of the film. If you haven't seen Ender's Game yet, you might want to return after you have.<br />

Wow, it’s been quite awhile since my last update.</div>
<div class="p1">
From the summer of 2012 through 2013, I attempted to stay in Los Angeles to work locally sculpting for set construction. To my dismay, there was little to no work to be had. They rarely make big movies in LA anymore and it’s really a shame that such a storied tradition of working in the Movie Industry of Hollywood is now non-existent to barely limping along.</div>
<div class="p1">
With my union benefits on the verge of being cancelled, I took a location job in New Orleans on <b>Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes</b> that lasted 2.5 weeks. Once back in Los Angeles, work started popping up in the summer of 2013, but were all short term. Anywhere from 2 days to 3 weeks. During those summer months, I sculpted on <b>Captain America; Winter Soldier</b>, <b>Interstellar</b>, <b>Thor: Dark World </b>reshoots and the TV show <b>Raising Hope</b>.</div>

Everything is still thriving in the illustration world of <b><a href="http://www.skulboydesigns.com/" target="_blank">Skulboy Designs</a></b>. Disc Golf designed custom stamps for Discovering The World, Disc Nation and Disc Golf Black Market for Latitude 64, MVP and Legacy Discs molds have been very popular. For the non-Disc Golf crowd, I’ve been producing skull inspired artwork and putting it on products from phone cases to aprons available at <b><a href="http://www.zazzle.com/skulboydesigns" target="_blank">Zazzle</a></b> and <b><a href="http://www.cafepress.com/skulboydesigns6" target="_blank">Cafe Press</a></b>.</div>

Well, that's me.<br />
I was one of a crew of sculptors sent to Albuquerque, NM to be part of set construction.<br />
<br />

First bit of business was making polystyrene parts to be molded and cast (parts in above photo were only used in one spot so these were the final pieces) for use on the Helicarrier bridge. The Helicarrier, how cool is that? Very cool.<br />

Next build was for the Thor / Loki confrontation on a rocky cliff dubbed The Promontory. The following are progress photos from start to finish. It also is an example of many big budget movie sets these days that are a small section of real surface that get extended digitally. </div>

<br />
After filming the Thor / Loki confrontation on the promontory set, a change-over began. Another set was designed to use the same basic layout. When they told me who the set was for, my comic-nerd excitement was pushed completely over the edge. This set was proof that Wheden was going to give a very special nod to the hardcore comic fans. Thanos. When James, the Production Designer spoke that name, my spastic outburst left him shaking his head and commenting that he was going to have give me any further information on a drip-feed so my head wouldn't explode.<br />
And I needed more info. Mistress Death? ... Hovering throne!?? No more questioned answered for me.<br />

We are finally settled down somewhat so I'm ready to catch up on my lack of posts.<br />
I spent the first half of the year working on Location for <b>The Avengers</b>. Several months in Albuquerque, New Mexico. As locations go, Albuquerque was not so bad. A short flight back to LA, hot, but dry (very dry) climate, spicy food and plenty of Disc Golf courses to check out on weekends.<br />
Akiko came out to visit and we took in some sites.<br />

That makes 3 films this summer (<b>Thor</b>, <b>Pirates 4</b> and <b>GL</b>) that my name appeared on the credits after 10 years of none. Weird and exciting at the same time.</div>Duncan Crawfordhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14394546546315556520noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8577319708737223275.post-52882649871271421432011-05-08T17:46:00.000-07:002011-05-08T17:46:49.510-07:00THOR Reigns!Knowing the comic book and even working on a few of the sets for the film, I had no idea how anyone could successfully make Asgard, Earth and Gods work in a live action movie. Well, I'm very happy to say that Kenneth Branagh pulled it off. A almost perfect blend of character, conflict, humor and action grabs you and doesn't let go. And tears of joy for comic fans like me who get to behold <b>THOR</b> brought to life. The spinning hammer, bringing down the lightning and battling beside Lady Sif and The Warriors Three to name a few. Wow.<br />
Marvel hits another home run. For me, <b>THOR</b> places right up there with the best of the best in comic book movies right next to <b>Spider-Man 2</b> and <b>Iron Man</b>. Can't give Marvel enough credit for crafting excellent movies with their stable of characters all leading up to what may be the coolest movie of all time, <b>The Avengers</b>. <br />
<br />
As a side note, <b>THOR</b> marks my first screen credit after 11 years in the movie industry. Look for Duncan Crawford under "Sculptors" while you wait for the scene after the credits.<br />

I'm currently sculpting away on the Marvel Fanboy Geek Dream film, <b>The Avengers</b> and last year was a very busy one. Because I won't post any set pictures until after the film has been theatrically released, I sometimes sit on them for over a year. Stayed tuned as 2011 will bring some behind the scenes peeks of sets from <b>Thor</b>, <b>Green Lantern</b>, <b>Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides</b>, <b>Butter</b> and <b>Super 8</b>.Duncan Crawfordhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14394546546315556520noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8577319708737223275.post-39760255003990051132011-02-24T15:29:00.000-08:002011-02-24T15:32:07.815-08:00Podcast!If your interested in listening to Akiko's and my Art History, here is a link to a podcast interview we did with awesome artist Chris Oatley for his blog.<br />

I was so compelled by Roger Kupelian's fire and drive to make this film happen that I needed to contribute in the best way I could, sculpting. Well, he's at last getting closer to becoming a collectable statue. His casted parts are being made ready for manufacturing and a sample statue is not too far away. I'll keep you updated as soon as I have more information. </div><div style="text-align: left;">Here's a few more photos of the sculpture.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

When I walk up to my approach shot and it's farther than 30' from the hole, I reach into my bag without hesitation and grab my Discraft Buzzz. I've been throwing the Z plastic version for awhile now, but was told that everyone is throwing the FLX plastic version. Of course, I had to have one. Haven't thrown it yet, but I'm dying to get out on the course.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

Little update for now until I get some time to import some photos from my camera.<br />
Started out sculpting a 1/4 inch scale model for a set on <a href="http://www.super8-movie.com/"><b>Super 8</b></a> in August and now I'm working as Stand-By for the full size version of that set during the final days of shooting. Nice run.<br />
And this past weekend, Akiko took me to <a href="http://uniquela.com/"><b>Unique LA</b></a>, a inspiring collection of artist displaying hand made items and cool silk screened goods. It was held in a Downtown penthouse with a great 360 view of LA. Art and scenery.<br />
Plus I'm working on drawing this year's graphic for the <a href="http://sylmardiscgolf.com/2010/12/09/tourneys-for-sylmar-2011/"><b>Sylmar Summertime Open</b></a> Disc Golf Tournament.

Challenging course with treacherous steep ravines that your disc can roll down putting you hundreds of feet away from the basket. They call it "getting Chavezed." Ouch.<br />
