    Just fabulous! I really hope Greg plans to create some kind of accessible library of his archival behind-the-scenes footage. What an incredible treasure trove for makeup fx geeks and cinemaphiles!!!

    More of this!!! With all the CGI and AI slop, please start focusing on more videos about practical effects to inspire the next generation of FX artists!!!

    <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nm4y4V13zUo&amp;t=583">9:43</a> When I was in Iraq with the US Army, I took tons of pictures. &nbsp;Someone had asked me when I was in Korea the year before why I take so many pictures, and my response was, &quot;Because in 20 years, I&apos;ll be glad I did.&quot; &nbsp;I was in Iraq in 2005, and its 20 years later, and that answer is still true. &nbsp;So believe people who say to take lots of pictures and videos.
