ILM Halloween Fancy Dress Party Highlights
Participating in the ILM Halloween Fancy Dress parties at Lucasfilm was an unforgettable experience that allowed me to showcase my creativity and passion for storytelling through costume design. I had the honor of winning the competition twice, which was a testament to the amazing craftsmanship and imaginative themes of my costumes.
For my first win, my wife and I dazzled the crowd as Wallace and the Penguin, inspired by the beloved characters from Wallace and Gromit: The Wrong Trousers. Our costumes captured the whimsical essence of the film, complete with attention to detail that brought laughter and joy to fellow attendees.
The second time I won, I took a unique approach by dressing as a young George Lucas during the early days of his filmmaking journey. Standing next to the legendary director for a photo was a surreal moment, embodying the spirit of creativity that has defined my career in the gaming and film industry.
These experiences not only celebrated the art of costume design but also reinforced my passion for storytelling, both in games and films. Each costume represented a part of my journey, blending nostalgia with the thrill of creativity.
Wallace and Gromit: The Wrong Trousers is a beloved stop-motion animated short film released in 1993.

The plot thickens when Wallace’s invention, a pair of high-tech trousers, becomes a tool for a heist involving a priceless diamond. Known for its witty humor and innovative animation, the film won the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film, solidifying its place in animation history.
