Gentle Giant Studios
Miyagi and I with Paul Schrier (yes, that one, from Power Rangers). He showed us around the wonderful Gentle Giant studios where we saw all the cool technologies they use to laser-scan and sculpt the faces, scenery and props from movies like Star Wars, The Matrix and Lord of the Rings.
The three-dimensional likenesses are used for special effects in movies, as well as for toys and collectibles. My Shock Trooper is from Gentle Giant.
