Last week, the daughter of Logan Mary Eulogized it InstagramRemembering him as “a rebel with a camera, a pioneer with my own story and hero. He was a visionary, director and pioneer with visual effects. My dad didn’t just work in movies – he did magic.”
Born on May 15, 1946, Logan began making animated films at 14 years old, who grew up in visual effects at the time he was 19 years old. In 2014He credited his father Campbell, who led some classic BBC dramas, teaching him how to hire a spicy screen, his first special effect. “My dad told me that every frame of a movie should be a perfect look,” Logan said at the time. “He is responsible for all my knowledge of the history of the film and to present me with the films of all the great filmmakers of the day, including Stanley Kubrick.”
