The imaginations of people like creature designer Neville Page are crucial to the golden age of tentpole movies, dominating world cinema like an extraterrestrial squid wrestling a battered space freighter as it drifts into a sun.

Neville Page is known in CG-land for many remarkable creatures, but his most seen work is probably the spindly wing-thrashing banshees in Avatar, for which he was the lead creature designer.
