Louie Tucci and Wandering Planet Toys Resurrect TV Cult Classic ‘The Prisoner’
Summary
As a member of the Pixologic team for many years, he’s been involved in product development, marketing and has hosted many events including the ZBrush Summit. Most recently, he’s teamed up with Wandering Planet Toys via a crowdfunded endeavor to help design a new collectible action figure commemorating the cult television classic The Prisoner, a niche project that falls perfectly in line with Louie’s offbeat and colorful creative persona. What resulted was an immediate appreciation for the potential of the software and while artistically inspired, I realized that if James Cameron was employing this tool to bring his creatures to life, clearly it would become a mainstay across multiple industries. My current role as teacher and professor allows me to impact the lives of a diverse group of students from a wide range of cultures and socio-economic realities. My most recent work includes the HBO Game of Thrones Emmy Awards Party installation designed by Billy Butchkavitz.
