www.larryjordan... - “Conversations on Craft” are a series of interviews with experts in production and post-production.

Jeff G. Rack is an Art Director for films, commercials, and ride-show vehicles. He worked at Disney’s in-house EFX company, Dreamquest on “Con-Air,” “Flubber,” “Mighty Joe Young,” “Kundun,” as a lead model-maker on “Armageddon,” and as a sculptor on Tim Burton’s remake of “The Planet of the Apes.” He’s also designed more than 150 productions from Santa Barbara to Edinburgh, Scotland.

This was right up my alley - I have built many sets over the years - I really like Jeff's answer about making the audience feel like they are in a different world - the world he created - well done as always Larry!

Larry,
I appreciate the breadth of topics you are willing to tackle and the depth at which you go to do so. If possible, I'd love some sort of video looking at low budget sets, for webcasting, student news shows, etc... I teach a student news broadcasting class and love your videos for seeing a little insight into what the pro's do. I am really struggling to create a set for my students and would love some starting points.
keep up the good work!
-Greg
