Visual
Concept Entertainment
began in 1982 after founder Peter Kuran finished work as animation
supervisor for Industrial Light and Magic (ILM) on George
Lucas' The Empire Strikes Back.
Kuran started his career in 1976 working as an animator on the
original Star Wars. As an animator on Star Wars, Kuran
introduced the concept of animating shadows and interactive light
to objects to make them appear more interactive.
Since that time, Peter and VCE have worked on over
250 theatrical motion pictures including both "Addams
Family" films and all three "Robocop" features. VCE
work was seen in "Men In Black", "The 6th Day", "Thirteen Days",
"A Beautiful Mind," "League of Extraodinary Gentlemen,"
"X-Men 2" and "The Last Samurai." In 2003,
Peter won an Academy Award in the Scientific and Technical Achievement
category for his RCI Color Restoration Process.
As
a filmmaker, Peter has produced five documentaries on the subject
of Atomic history, weapons and testing. Beginning
in 1995, Peter produced and directed the award winning film
"Trinity and Beyond (the Atomic Bomb Movie)" and has since
produced "Atomic Filmmakers",
"Atomic Journeys" , "Nukes in Space"
and "Nuclear 911."
