Neville Page is internationally recognized for his character and creature design in numerous films such as James Cameron's Avatar (2009) and J.J. Abram's Star Trek (2009). His ability to create mythical anatomy, believable surface detail and personality through his drawings allows the audience to identify with the character and immerse itself in an alternate reality. The Beauty in the Beast: Crafting Creatures by Neville Page presents original designs from blockbuster films he has worked on such as Prometheus (2012), Super 8 (2011), Green Lantern (2011) and Tron (2010), among others, showcasing Page's use of traditional media as well as digital tools such as Photoshop and Zbrush to create fantastic creatures and exotic characters. Featuring early pencil sketches to final digital concepts and 3D models, this exhibition will explore Page's complex developmental design progress.
