MECHAS OF ALL SHAPES AND SIZES
These robots, called mechas in the story, ranged from the utilitarian type such as gardeners, security guards and other blue-
collar workers to Gigolo Joe (Jude Law), a true love machine, and Teddy, a robotic teddy bear who serves as Davids sidekick.
Pictured above: Aaron Sims and Eric Fiedler put the finishing touches on the Insecurity
Guard at SWS.
LOOKING FOR REPLACEMENT PARTS
Damaged mecha outcasts rummage through the pile, looking for replacement parts. The studio designed twelve key mecha
characters for the scene including a security guard mecha that was built from a lifecast of Stan Winston each of which was
realized as either a mechanical puppet or an appliance makeup worn by a performer.
Pictured above: The "Insecurity Guard" prepares for his demise at the brutal "Flesh Fair" in AI: Artificial Intelligence.
