Steve kinda looks and sounds like Robert Downey, Jr.

Steve .....I disagree .... you saying that your contribution to the film industry is over. In Tinsel Town where special FX now controlled 'by committee' or 'the suits', CGI seems to be predominate technique but I sense it's getting homogenized with sameness feel & aesthetics. Combo special FX is best of both worlds but not seeing much used. Guillermo Del Toro done some but CGI is still major FX tool. Mainstream biz stuck on CGI. Maybe independent filmmaking market more use of mixed FX methods.

3:44 -- THAT'S how the TRANSFORMERS should have looked! Actual robotic faces capable of emoting without the way too visually-complicated CGI.

So awesome! That's true talent!

Hi Steve, I for one want to say a big thank you for sharing your life's work with all of us here on YT. Like you said in your video one day you will pass on as will many of the other greats in the SE world and your work may never be seen. I love SFX and they can if used correctly enhance the enjoyment of a movie but if over used ruin it like the Star Wars prequels. I am so looking forward to your future videos to get an insight and I hope you do one day win an oscar.

Fuck the Oscars your an amazing artist, the Oscars are just a jerk off fest for Hollywood.

I miss you Steve! Your contribution to the industry is not over!! I had been searching the web wondering where you had gone.
I look forward to watching the videos on this channel. I'm not a horror movie fan but I just happened to watch a featurette on one of the Blade DVD and fell in love with the creativity and wondeful way Steve explained how the effects were created.
Steve stop smoking and drinking because your fans want you to be around for a long time!
Your fans miss You Steve!

@stevejohnsonfx
So there will be behind the scenes dvds for sale???
That will be awsome.
Steve seems a very real guy. I would love to see him do a video talking honestly about the state of the industry today and how he feels about what CGI has done.
Why does he say his contribution to the industry is over?? Why has he had enough?

@tbip2001 The first DVD is already for sale and more to follow soon. You can find out more at EonEntertainment (dot com).

@stevejohnsonfx Thanks for the link!
I didnt know it was available. Just pre ordered my copy.
If it says pre order, does that mean the DVD is not ready to go yet? Whats the ETA on this?
Lastly, just wanted to say thanks for not making it stupidly expensive! An hour video with 200 photos for about 7 pounds!! :)

@tbip2001 Thanks for your purchase! The DVDs will be shipping out on the 13th, so just a few days from now. Coming soon will be DVDs on Abyss, Hulk, Night of the Demons, and a certain man of steel. ;)
We want to price them so that most anyone who wants one can afford one. We will always have a set number for pre-order, and those will always be $9.99. So if you see one for pre-order that you want, don't wait! They may sell out.
