Contents

  • Standing the Heat – p.4
    Jody Duncan chronicles the remarkable practical effects used in Ron Howard’s Backdraft. Special effects supervisor Allen Hall led a team that captured large-scale fire sequences live on stage and city locations, with actors performing close to real flames. Only a small number of shots were enhanced by Industrial Light & Magic, making the film a showcase for practical pyrotechnics.

  • Rocket Blast – p.20
    Mark Cotta Vaz examines Joe Johnston’s The Rocketeer, an adventure steeped in 1930s aviation lore. Johnston enlisted production designer Jim Bissell, special effects supervisor Jon G. Belyeu, and Industrial Light & Magic to create miniatures, optical composites, and a full range of flying effects — from a small-scale superhero to a towering zeppelin.

  • That Old Black Magic – p.46
    Kevin Martin details the stylish blend of noir and fantasy in Cast a Deadly Spell. Tony Gardner’s Alterian Studios provided imaginative creature work, while 4-Ward Productions contributed matte paintings and explosive optical effects for the film’s supernatural climax.

Front Cover: Cliff Secord soars with his rocket pack in The Rocketeer.
Back Cover: Firefighter Stephen McCaffrey faces an inferno in Backdraft.

A valuable addition for collectors and visual effects enthusiasts, this issue of Cinefex captures the craftsmanship and ingenuity that powered some of the most memorable action and fantasy films of the early 1990s.
