Alias:
Daniel Snape

Dan Snape joined ILM's London studio in summer 2014 as 2D Sequence Supervisor on Avengers: Age of Ultron. With over 12 years experience, Dan has worked on a variety of films including Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, The Bourne Ultimatum, The Dark Knight, Skyfall and Fast and Furious 6. As Compositing Supervisor at ILM Dan's accomplishments include Spectre, ILM's first Bond feature film, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 and Star Wars: The Last Jedi.  Most recently, Dan has completed work as the Visual Effects Supervisor on Avengers: Infinity War. Dan studied Media Technology at De Montfort University, Leicester and then went on to study at the National Film and Television School in Beaconsfield. He began his career in VFX at a small television company in London. Dan soon made the move into film as a compositor at the London company, Double Negative. Dan enjoys the collaborative, creative processes which goes into creating visual effects and still gets a thrill out of making the large, visual talking points in films.  Originally from Grimsby, in the North of England, Dan enjoys his time away from work with his wife and two children and is an avid supporter, if not a player any more, of football.  Information above via their Industrial Light & Magic Official Site Bio.

About the Movie Section

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).

Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.

Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)

While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).

Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
