collection, an incredible array of original models, drawings, storyboards
and behind-the-scenes photographs are on view. Harryhausen created
Dynamation, an original technique that allowed armatured models to be
integrated into live-action footage
Costume Exhibit running regularly in LA
Arclight Cinema's Costume Exhibits
The Arclight Cinemas in Hollywood and Sherman Oaks put up rotating
displays of movie costumes and props from films they are currently showing.
The Arclight's website does not
keep the costumes listed on the website... but if you sign up for their
newsletter they often mention which costumes are there.... sometimes.
Costumes are normally only there for a few weeks... but you get a close up
look of some of the hottest media costumes out there.... and they allow
photographs! (Yea!) Lighting varies from OK to really lousy.
Sometimes they are in cases, but some are not. It's well worth bringing a
small still cam that likes low light for some great one-time-chance shots.
| Please share any pics with the whole group over on
F-Costume . |
