Phil Tippett studio in Berkeley closing; memorabilia and movie props up for grabs

Phil Tippett is a genius of stop-motion animation and special effects, and I think it's fair to compare him with Ray Harryhausen. His work would be familiar to "Star Wars" fans, and it's important to acknowledge other aspects of his long career, the breadth of his experience, and how influential he's been on filmmaking.

Phil Tippett was also a guiding figure at a pivotal moment in the advance of CGI. He brought his animation skills to give life-like movement to dinosaurs in "Jurassic Park". He was credited as the Senior Dinosaur Supervisor, and was the subject of the "You had just one job" meme.

Sad that Tippet Studios was bought-out in 2024 and the company has now filed for bankruptcy. But it's also a relief to see that although Phil Tippett has now officially retired, he says he's going to keep making art.
