Comic Con International has released the schedule for Friday, July 19. While the attention may be focused on the star-studded panel scheduled for Thursday, there are two Ender’s Game related panels scheduled for Friday.
A panel for various professionals in the art department for films will take place from 12:30 to 1:30 in Room 24ABC and includes Ender’s Game art director Clint Wallace.
The Feature Film Art Department: The Art of Collaboration-and the Collaboration of Artists
How do as few as five – or as many as 50 – artists work together to create a coherent, believable world in which to stage the action of the modern motion picture? Members of the art department of Captain America: First Avenger discuss working on the film in Los Angeles while the film was shooting in London. Panelists include moderator and supervising art director John Dexter (also Pirates of the Caribbean 2 & 3), conceptual model maker Jeff Frost (Star Trek Into Darkness), lead vehicle designer Daniel Simon (Tron: Uprising), graphic designer Karen TenEyck (The Lone Ranger), and set designer and assistant art director Clint Wallace (Men in Black 3, Enders Game as art director).
Another panel in the same room will feature costume designers including Alan Villanueva from Ender’s Game.
