 Joseph
Laudati.
Inspired as a youngster by special effects wizard Ray Harryhausen,
Joseph Laudati embarked on a hobby of stop-motion
photography
that expanded into a career in model animation and special
effects. His lifelong fascination with the technique, combined
with explorations into the occult, led to the writing of 'In
Darkness it Dwells', his first novel. An accomplished sculptor,
Laudati also works
as a prototype artist, and has created the master patterns
for many action figures, toys, and collectible model kits.
His animation work has been seen in film and television, and
his writing published in Amazing Figure Modeler, Modeler's
Resource, and Cinemagic magazines.
He lives in New York City.
