We celebrate his creativity, talent, and contributions to the Craft and honor him with this year’s Lifetime Achievement Award,” said Tim Wilcox, ADG Illustrators & Matte Artists Council Chair. From props to sets, to vehicles, to gadgets, and, most prominent and recognizable, a small fleet of starships for the Star Trek franchise, John has inspired many and left an amazing mark on our industry. “For the past 36 years, John’s work as a Production Illustrator has been an integral part of over 100 films and television shows. According to the ADG, the event will “celebrate Eaves’ artistic contribution to the many space vehicles, sets, and concepts that have become classics in the Marvel, Star Trek, and Sci-Fi worlds that we know today.”
The award will be presented to him by veteran Star Trek production designer Herman Zimmerman. Today the Art Directors Guild announced John Eaves will receive the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Illustrators and Matte Artists at the 25th Annual ADG Awards. Artist John Eaves has been creating iconic designs for Hollywood for 35 years including many Star Trek films and television series, and so the Art Directors Guild Awards has decided to honor his lifetime of work.
