This year Roger Guyett, ILM's visual effects supervisor will present at VIEW Conference his last work with J.J. Abrams’ blockbuster re-imagining of the legendary Star Trek franchise, Star Trek - Into Darkness.

In 1995, Guyett led the technical direction of key sequences in Dragonheart, where ILM’s proprietary facial animation software brought Draco the CG dragon to life. As computer graphics supervisor on Twister, he oversaw a team of digital artists that created stunning images of one of nature’s fiercest weather events. Three years later, Guyett was recognized with a British Academy Award (BAFTA) for his innovative work as co-visual effects supervisor on Saving Private Ryan. For his work on Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Guyett earned both Oscar and BAFTA nominations and won the Visual Effects Society Award for Best Visual Effects.
In 2009, Guyett was named to the PGA ‘Digital 25: Visionaries, Innovators and Producers List’ by the Producer’s Guild of America which honors those who have made the most vibrant and exciting contributions to the advancement of digital entertainment and storytelling.
