Maker Faire Austin 2008

Homemade LED Sci-Fi Space Light Props, Robots, Models and VFX!

John P Funk started a home based independent VFX company after leaving the Computer gaming Industry in late 2004. His dream was to get back to making "real" props and robots and Sci-Fi visual effects just like they used to when "Star Wars" originally debuted.

John's unique process of Recycling old toys, Circuit bending electronics /LED's and Kit Bashing model kits gives his creations a "Unique" style with a clean edge of design that is completely his own! John likes to tout that his designs are mostly recycled, even the plastic styrene he purchases comes out of the recycle bin from the local plastics warehouse!

John had his "Quest for the Dark Planet" display at Maker Faire Austin last year and had so much fun he had to do it again, this time with new inventions to show people!

I have created artistic inventions since I can remember and have credits in simulation, games, TV, and films. I am currently creating an original universe in my own short film and composing the music with my guitar synth.
