| London-born CHRIS CORBOULD (Special Effects Supervisor) entered into the world of special effects in 1974. The first ten years of his career was spent learning all the basic aspects of this unique craft, ranging from hydraulics, machine work, welding, fabrication and pyrotechnics to the complicated disciplines involved when actually filming the special effects. After this initial period of training, Corbould put these skills to test on films such as Superman (I, II and III), The Spy Who Loved Me, Moonraker, For Your Eyes Only and A View To A Kill as a special effects technician and senior technician. The knowledge gained over these precious years caused him to be given the additional responsibility of floor supervisor under the overall supervisor. Corbould excelled in this capacity on films such as The Living Daylights, License to Kill, Willow, Delta Force, Interview With A Vampire, Far and Away, Hudson Hawk, and Highlander II. The big break for Corbould as supervisor inevitably happened on Nightbreed. He then continued his own brand of magic within special effects on films including Shadowlands, GoldenEye, The Ghost and the Darkness, Tomorrow Never Dies and Firestorm on locations all over the world. He is currently supervising the special effects sequences on The World is Not Enough, the latest and most spectacular James Bond film to date. |
