All major theme park attractions have "mockups" during production, to help figure out particular effects, scenes, and sight-lines. For the finale of MIB, one of the three possible endings to the ride is the high-scoring "Tailor" alien, who is busy constructing your MIB suit (but isn't quite ready, exclaiming "it'll be ready next Wednesday!" -- which is actually my voice in the ride). In order to determine the proper design, movement and placement of the multi-tentacled character, we made a tabletop model that demonstrated its range of motion, lighting reveal (including the scrim wall that conceals it), and vehicle sight-lines, shared with Universal executives and with the character design vendor, Advanced Animations. I made this video on March 2nd 1999, and my technical & design team for the mockup were Production Designer Jimmy Pickering, Scenic Art Director Mary Lamm-Kaleta, Character Art Director Desiree Soto-Vaughn, Creature Designer Neville Page, Set Designer Erik Requejo, Facility Design Manager Jay Pecotte, Design Manager Mike Gordon, and Project Manager Jeff Smith.
