Artist of the Week #19 John Brown

John Brown has been a part of the Hollywood scene for several years. working on such films as The Scorpion King, Planet of the Apes, The Hulk, Species 2 and the biggest being Alien Resurrection. Whereas your traditional concept artist will create 2D visuals, brown sculptures character's from scratch out of clay, giving the director and producers a better understanding his design.

When Brown Isn't working on the concept stage he's helping to create some of the final detailed costumes and masks that make it on the big screen.

Sadly, His skills are one of the many traditional skills that will one day be lost due to the advancements in 3D character animation, the biggest example being Avatar. Let's hope that pyrotechnics, Prosthetics and other skills like these stick round for that little bit longer.
