Contents

  • The Stuff That Dreams Are Made Of – p.4
    Adam Eisenberg takes readers behind the scenes of Joe Dante’s Explorers, where childhood adventure collides with science fiction. The article chronicles how Industrial Light & Magic and Omnibus Computer Graphics helped bring to life the “Thunder Road,” a homemade spaceship that carries three boys to encounters with Rob Bottin’s whimsical alien creations.

  • Baring the Soul of ‘Lifeforce’ – p.34
    Glenn Campbell explores the elaborate makeup and optical effects of Tobe Hooper’s Lifeforce. Featuring input from John Dykstra and the Apogee team, the article reveals how practical effects, model photography, and innovative laser techniques supported the film’s blend of horror and science fiction.

  • Shooting for an ‘A’ on ‘My Science Project’ – p.54
    Stephen Rebello discusses Disney’s My Science Project, a fantastical adventure about a high school experiment gone wrong. With commentary from director Jonathan Betuel, effects supervisor John Scheele, and dinosaur creator Doug Beswick, the piece details how a tyrannosaurus rex was brought convincingly into a school gymnasium.

Front Cover: The Thunder Road meets an alien craft in Explorers.
Back Cover: Neek, the teenage extraterrestrial joyrider, also from Explorers.
