EMBED:

This past Wednesday, a stunt demo was held at the Sunset Gower Studios out in LA, which featured a revealing action-filled presentation of the high-energy physical effects performed in The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor!

The demonstration was performed by a team of stunt professionals, which was followed by a Q&A with actor/physical effects performer Scott Armstrong, who stunt doubled for actor Luke Ford in the film.

In addition, the intimate, behind-the-scenes look at the stunt performer’s experience included a sword fighting demonstration, airborne battle acrobats and the fire effects handling that appeared in the film! The Q&A was moderated by veteran stunt choreographer Joe Box.

0115_stanwinston I feel bad bringing sad news to movie fans, but Academy Award winning special effects and makeup artist Stan Winston died last night. He is best known for his work in the Terminator series where he designed the original Terminator Endoskeleton; Winston has also worked on Aliens, Jurassic Park and Predator, among other big-name franchises. He is also a frequent collaborator with James Cameraon, with whom he co-founded Digital Domain in 1993.

Winston may have passed on, but his work lives on in past films, as well as upcoming films like Avatar and Terminator 4.

May he rest in peace.
