MythBusters’ Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman
September 24, 2012
Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman, co-hosts of MythBusters, will speak as part of UNT's Distinguished Lecture Series. The event includes a moderated interview, audience Q&A and videos. No demonstrations will be performed and no myths will be busted on stage.
Hyneman has more than 25 years of experience in the special effects industry, and aside from co-hosting MythBusters has had his hand in producing effects for more than 800 commercials, dozens of feature films and hundreds of prototypes.
Savage began working in the film industry in the '90s in behind-the-scenes roles. His ability to solve difficult set problems made him well known in the special effects industry, and he went on to work on popular commercials and movies including Star Wars episodes 1 and 2, The Mummy and Terminator 3. Hyneman approached Savage in 2002 to join him in co-hosting MythBusters.
