Hi Phil,

Thanks for this AMA!! I'm an enormous enthusiast of your special effects work. It has inspired and thrilled me countless times. ED-209 for one, is an absolutely fantastic character. I have some questions:

  1. What influences went into the 'Dark Overlord' design from 'Howard the Duck'? How complex was the Go-Motion process, given the number of limbs and appendages?

  2. How much input did you have on the final ED-209 design? Can you tell me about your experience in animating this robot?

  3. Out of all films you have worked on, What was the most challenging SFX scene to film for you?

  4. What do you think remain as your best FX shots?
