Biography

Zoran Perišić je laureat za doprinos razvoju animacije i vizuelnih efekata drugog Novi Sad film festivala.

Zoran Perišić je režiser, producent, pisac, supervizor, konsultant za vizuelne efekte, kamerman i – izumitelj. Dobitnik je Oskara i BAFTA nagrade za svoj rad na vizuelnim efektima u filmu Supermen (1978) i nominovan je za Oskara za najbolje specijalne efekte u filmu Povratak u Oz (1985). Takođe, dobitnik je Akademske nagrade za naučna i tehnička dostignuća za razvoj Zoptic Front-Projection sistema – glavne metode korišćene za prikazivanje letenja Supermana u filmovima Supermen 1, 2 i 3.

Studirao je na Univerzitetu u Birmingemu (Velika Britanija) i Univerzitetu u Beogradu. Na početku svoje karijere radio je kao kameraman u animaciji i industrijskim dokumentarcima u Midlandsu (Velika Britanija) pre nego što je dobio posao u Londonu na filmu Stenlija Kjubrika 2001: Odiseja u svemiru (1968). Radio je na vizuelnim efektima na brojnim visoko profilisanim igranim filmovima i napisao četiri knjige o animaciji i VFX kinematografiji, koje je objavio Focal Press. Takođe je napisao i režirao dve animirane dečije TV serije (Magic Fountain i Captain Cook’s Travels) za Yorkshire Television (Velika Britanija).

Režirao je akcijsko-avanturistički igrani film Gunbus poznat i kao Sky Bandits (1986) i porodični film The Phoenix and the Magic Carpet (1995), koji je takođe i producirao. Zoranova strast je letenje – ne samo u vizuelnim efektima, nego se oprobao i kao privatni pilot. Zato nije iznenađujuće što njegov roman za mlade An Alien Called Freddy govori o dečaku koji može da leti. Kao izumitelj, ima nekoliko patenata, uključujući Zoptic Front Projection sistem i Z3D – sistem za stereoskopski 3D sa jednom kamerom.

Zoran Perisic is the laureate of the Novi Sad Film Festival's Award for Contribution to the Development of Animation and Visual Effects.

He is a director, producer, writer, visual effects supervisor, consultant, cinematographer — and inventor. Perisic is an Academy Award and BAFTA winner for his work on visual effects in Superman (1978), and an Oscar nominee for Best Visual Effects in Return to Oz (1985). He also received an Academy Award for Scientific and Technical Achievement for developing the Zoptic Front-Projection System — the groundbreaking technique used to depict Superman flying in Superman I, II, and III.

He studied at both the University of Birmingham and the University of Belgrade. Early in his career, he worked as a cameraman on animated and industrial documentary films in the Midlands (UK), before joining the production of Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) in London.

Perisic has worked on visual effects for numerous high-profile feature films and is the author of four books on animation and VFX cinematography, published by Focal Press. He also wrote and directed two animated children’s TV series (Magic Fountain and Captain Cook’s Travels) for Yorkshire Television.

As a director, he helmed the action-adventure feature film Gunbus (also known as Sky Bandits, 1986) and the family film The Phoenix and the Magic Carpet (1995), which he also produced.

Zoran’s passion for flight extends beyond visual effects — he is also a licensed private pilot. Unsurprisingly, his children’s novel An Alien Called Freddy tells the story of a boy who can fly. As an inventor, he holds several patents, including those for the Zoptic Front Projection and Z3D, a single-camera stereoscopic 3D system.
