anamatronics, sculpture etc.

[Stellabe]

My friend is really into sculpting and anamatronics. His ideal job would be working for the film industry doing all the dummies, anamatronics etc for horror films. If anyone has any ideas on how he could get his foot in, any good books/sites that he should look at to help him develop his talent further or any personal experiences with materials etc would be grateflly recvieved.
