I worked on this. Animating (2-D) much of the electricity that comes out of Lightening. Worked at a cool FX studio in LA called Boss Film. We handled all the visual effects for the film. John Carpenter was great. Easy to work with. I did the scene too where you see Chinese characters floating in the air a bit before disappearing after Lightening gets killed by Kurt Russell. I wasn’t supposed to do that but I did it anyway as a tribute to Carpenter. I didn’t tell anyone I did it. So when Carpenter saw it in dailies and asked someone what is that? They found out it was his name in Chinese. I had a Chinese girlfriend at the time so I asked her to write down those Chinese characters meaning John Carpenter. Then I just drew them into the electricity. Carpenter loved it! So he kept it in the movie. Why it’s still there. Fun project. All the way through.
