Angels and Demons (2009)

One of the first big sets I worked on was Angels and Demons. We constructed a massive Piazza Navona and Vatican set in the parking lot at Hollywood Park race track in Inglewood, CA. The set pieces were reinforced by shipping containers and I spent a lot of my time sitting in a crane 100ft above the set. ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
