Episode 13 with Dave Asling
Dave Asling began his journey in remote Canada, making it all the way to LA while building miniatures and props for projects ranging from Elysium and iRobot all the way to The Mandalorian where his work was used in an entirely new way. As the hands-on owner of Creation Consultants, Dave's love of creative problem solving has led to the design and execution of hundreds of props and visual effects miniatures for countless productions. Dave's work has contributed to the nomination and awarding of visual effects Academy, Emmy and Gemini Awards and has been featured in advertising markets across North America.

About the Host:
Born in Flint, Michigan, A.J. Wedding created his first film in the 5th grade which helped push public opinion toward the first recycling program the city had ever seen. Realizing the power of filmmaking, he was hooked. After earning a B.F.A. from Western Michigan University, A.J. began reading scripts for Cruise/Wagner Productions at Paramount. He volunteered for every production he could, learning from the pros about producing, cinematography, lighting, directing, VFX and even ended up in front of the camera. He spent a great deal of time editing, including trailers for blockbuster films and pro-bono work for charities such as A Leg to Stand On. Eventually he was able to direct, and sold the series Infamous which he co-wrote with Craig Bonacorsi. A.J. has just launched Orbital Studios, a virtual production studio in Los Angeles. @orbitalvirtualstudios
