From
the pages of Marvel Comics through a popular eighties television series
and several movies-of-the-week, the Hulk has endured as one of the most
memorable characters of its genre. However, his big-screen debut in
The Hulk, directed by Ang
Lee, promises to be his most impressive, thanks to the work of award
winning visual effects supervisor Dennis
Muren and a team at Industrial
Light & Magic, who were charged with bringing the green-skinned
behemoth to life as an entirely computer generated character. Article by Joe Fordham |

The reluctant
heroes and singular villains of X-Men, a film based on the popular
Marvel Comics series, are back for a return engagement in the sequel,
X2: X-Men United -- this time accompanied by a new generation
of 'X-kids.' Also returning to the fold was visual effects supervisor
Michael L.
Fink and many of the original film's effects artisans, who tackled
the sequel's more ambitious workload - new and improved looks for returning
characters, the fleshing out of new characters and the execution of
several spectacular action sequences. Article by Brad Munson |

A subterranean
odyssey undertaken by terranauts to save the earth from destructive
magnetic forces is the focus of The Core, directed by Jon Amiel.
To realize the film's fantastic premise -- which included an exploration
of the earth's core by the terranauts in an experimental vessel, as
well as a series of spectacular natural disturbances that rock the
earth's inhabitants above-ground -- visual effects supervisor Gregory
McMurry relied on an international contingent of effects vendors
and a panoply of effects techniques.
