Ray Caple
1938年1月5日 — 1993年1月15日 (55年)
Ray Caple was a British Matte Artist out of the school of the SP/FX 'great lord' Les Bowie.
Les Bowie recognized his capability and trained him early as a Matte Artist, when he was still very young.
The catalogue of films Ray worked on, usually uncredited, is quite substantial.
He worked for 'Battle of Britain', 'Play Dirty', 'Mackenna's Gold', 'Superman, 'Alien' and so many more. In the late 60ths Ray Caple was a top-trained Matte Artist of the Les Bowie company.
Producer Harry Saltzman took him to Spain for his epic 'Battle of Britain'.
Obviously he was very happy with Rays work and offered him another job in Spain.
Ray Caple went to Almeria (single contract?) to do the matte paintings for 'Play Dirty'.
The rough and cynical answer to the Robert Aldrich movie 'The Dirty Dozen'.
Kit: "You are quite right about Ray Caple being the 'foreground painting' artist, but actually he was at the time employed by the Les Bowie company, and hired out to Saltzman picture."
