Emmy Award-winning special effects and make-up artist and designer Steve Johnson has today launched a new YouTube channel – stevejohnsonfx – and its first video broadcast. His personal message and vision for future efforts outlines a very exciting opportunity for fans of film and television to have access to some amazing material related to his work in Hollywood over the course of his 30-year career spanning more than 200 movies.
The first such video (“Steve’s Welcome Message”), published today, offers an exciting preview of what will follow:
As noted in the video, Mr. Johnson notes he has over 100,000 still photographs and 10,000 hours of behind-the-scenes footage, and wants to share his “treasure chest” of this archival material with the public, as a tribute to the art of make-up special effects and the artists behind them.
