Storytelling with Iain McCaig

Описание: Iain McCaig divides his energies between a lifelong love of storytelling, and a passionate belief that everyone in the world can learn to draw.

In his 43 years in the entertainment industry many of his creations have become pop-culture icons, like his Star Wars designs for Queen Amidala and Darth Maul. He has created art for games, from LucasArts and for many films, among them ’Terminator 2’, ‘Hook’, ‘Peter Pan’, ‘Charlotte’s Web’, Harry Potter, ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’, The Avengers, and the ongoing Star Wars movies.

In his spare time, McCaig writes, produces and directs, and wanders the land encouraging people to draw and tell stories.

53:53 The Microsoft-Activision deal closure shows that tech giants can still grow by getting “vertical mergers” through courts and regulators relatively unscathed. Discuss

01:39:44 Please tell us about the first time you met Alex Lindsay.
