SFX master of stop motion animation whose dreams danced, the legendary RAY HARRYHAUSEN, is gone at 92.
The genius artist behind the one-man showmanship of such classics as Jason and the Argonauts, Seventh Voyage of Sinbad, First Men IN The Moon and Clash of The Titans has gone to the Land Beyond Beyond.
Harryhausen made his models by hand (often with help from his machinist dad) and painstakingly shot them frame by frame to create the illusion of three dimensional life.
His death in London was announced in a statement posted on Facebook by the Ray and Diana Harryhausen Foundation.
"Harryhausen's genius was in being able to bring his models alive," it reads.
