Movie Animatronics

Building a radio controlled mechanical mask
The complete step-by-step video guide

Learn effective techniques to create realistic animatronics without the need of expensive equipment!

This is far more than a simple instructional DVD,
it's a complete video-course which takes you

mechanical mask. There are 16 chapters divided
in 3 discs for a total of nearly 5 hours of footage.
The mask created is animated by 2 radio
systems and a total of 10 servos. Many
techniques are simplified so you won't need
expensive machinery such as a lathe or a router.

I've gotta say this is a MUST HAVE video for anyone interested in learning r/c animatronics. I would have killed to have this when I was a kid! There's something for everybody, from the absolute beginner to the professional. Thanks for making it Daniele!

Hi Daniele, I borrowed your DVD from a friend who picked it up at the LA Tradeshow. It is incredible, I had to own a copy so I've just ordered one. Thank you for making this available. Incredible work.

I have to chime in here and give a huge THUMBS UP to Daniele Tirinnanzi for the GREAT set of 3 DVD's of the process for his animatronic Gorilla mask. AMAZING work. Puts me in mind of the level of detail Gary Willett did for his Animatronic Project DVD offering as well. AT any rate, Daniele's DVD's are beautifully done, nicely filmed, beautifully and completely narrated (WHO DID the narration Daniele - you're Italian, the narration sounded like the guy who runs WETA FX in New Zealand)!!?? Anyway great set of DVD's. I spent most of the day watching - well at least the 5 hours or so it takes to get through it all. But I must ENDORSE HIGHLY this great set of DVD's. Great instruction and a super project too. Just have a look and see for yourself. Check his website, the YouTube videos and so forth. I was very pleased at this purchase and it will provide not only wonderful inspiration but a high level of professional, detailed instruction to anyone at any level. BRILLIANT WORK DANIELE. Cheers on a great project.

A must buy for your animatronics DVD collection. A very informative DVD on building a gorilla mask including the processes and chemicals used for the project. A great resource for animatronics. Rod
