Having attended our first Soundstage Events a couple of months back, when Kevin Jenkins from ILM was their guest, we can heartily recommend a trip to The Others, 6 Manor Road, Stoke Newington, in North London, N16 5SA. It’s a small, intimate setting, couches and sofas half-moon around the stage, the lighting is low, the bar is full and the entry is only £16.00, which is a snip for the night you get.
Coming on Tuesday June 12th is ILM-er Julian Foddy, who worked on Rogue One among other projects. Expect Fantha Trackers to be in attendance, as this is too good an evening to pass up.
Julian Foddy’s work as a visual effects supervisor for Industrial Light and Magic includes TRANSFORMERS: THE LAST KNIGHT and ROGUE ONE: A STAR WARS STORY. His career in visual effects began in 2004 after seeking a change of direction from being a successful DJ and music producer.
Work experience at Double Negative led to becoming a digital and 3D artist, then CG, Computer Graphics, supervisor for the company on films such as THE DARK KNIGHT, GREEN ZONE and FAST & FURIOUS 6. Creating a CG lead character for sci-fi comedy PAUL gained him a Visual Effects Society nomination.
Julian’s work at Industrial Light and Magic, which he joined in 2015, included being an onset VFX supervisor on ROGUE ONE and working on other sci-fi films.
