Happy 90th Mr Ray Harryhausen!

Legendary Special FX master Ray Harryhausen celebrated his 90th birthday today.
Over 40 years he almost single handedly kept stop motion animation alive in the film industry giving us classics like Jason and the Argonauts, One Million Years B.C, The Valley of Gwangi and Clash of the Titans.
The techniques he invented to blend animation with live action are still an integral part of how CGI effects are used in today's films.
