Imagine!
- Special Effects Guru-
A Picture's worth a thousand words.


Representing Dennis was a ten minute film collage of magic that he has created in cinema. It was a "you really have to be here moment." It's easy to see why he has earned numerous academy awards. The heroes of American cinema, E.T., Luke Skywalker, Forrest Gump, were all there, blended together in a bombardment of cinema wonder. When Dennis attempts to define imagination, a picture is worth a thousand words.
