From his current base in Vancouver, Tink travels extensively, working on films around the globe. Projects that are visually beautiful, technically unique and complex are his specialties. Tink and his talented crew bring to each film a very high level of concept, detail and passion.

Beneath
 The old family manor house - We found an old hunting lodge in the mountains and changed it from the existing bright white with manicured grounds to the dark, weathered and overgrown property pictured here. The gate our Hero stands in front of was built and installed on location, as was most of the foundation wall around the house as well as some chimneys and lightning rods on the roof |
 An upstairs hall - built on a soundstage - was designed to do double duty as two distinct areas of the house by incorporating quick and clever detail changes |
 Mysterious goings on in one of the rooms... |
 The manor house is riddled with secret crawlspaces, here is where the wall bas been broken through to reveal a portion of one of them |
 Deep in the crawlspaces - these were also built on the soundstage and designed in modular units enabling quick redresses that gave an almost infinite variety of corners, nooks and crannies in which to stage our action |
 Something's about to happen... |
 Old worn stair detail - this was modular as well, changing into many different positions and representing a few different heights |
 The one bright room down under the house - but somethin' dark is about to happen... |
 The old boathouse. Situated not too far through the woods from the old manor on a secluded inlet of a lake. What you see here is actually a two-walled set, nothing exists of the building except what is visible here. Design-wise, it ties into the look of the manor, but with the added effect of spending the last number of years being neglected |

 Boathouse interior - This is a shot looking into a corner near the entry door. This was a full four-walled set built on a pool which was adjacent to the manor house |
 Boathouse again - Our Hero being pulled into the water - notice the beautiful curve to the boat slip |
 Escape from the underground tunnels into the boathouse |
 The old family mausoleum - built as a two-walled set in a very charming countryside cemetery |
 Interior of the mausoleum, built on the soundstage with breakaway marble panels for each tomb |

 Tink on the China Town set |
 For the film, an ancient civilization was created, including their written language and architectural details. This sandstone tablet is one examples where the written language was visible |
House of the Dead
 Front of the “House” |
 Wide shot of the house with multi still-camera set up. This set was built on a parking lot in the forest. Gravestones, trees, shrubs, dirt, leaves and debris were dressed atop the existing gravel surface |
 Tink at the entry to the house. Story-wise, the house was constructed by marooned Spanish sailors on a remote Pacific Northwest island in the 1760’s |
 Make-up detail for our villain. He is immortal, but his body detoriates, so he must constantly replenish his skin and body parts with those of his latest victims |
