Bill Munns, a noted Hollywood movie makeup effects specialist who also has a wide range of experience in many fields. We are placing his summary of Background and Qualification here for others to read before downloading the report.

The report in question here, is the in-depth analysis that Bill Munns did over the Patterson-Gimlin Footage to bring about a perspective of the footage from a movie professional's view.

'''Summary of Background and Qualification'''

In terms of my qualification and professional background, I have a separate website of my career achievements ( The Bill Munns Creature Gallery ) and invite the reader to visit it, if you are
online. However, this PDF version may be circulated and read by people who may not wish to go online, and would prefer at least a summary of my background herein.

I am generally described as a "movie makeup effects man" and this description does certainly encompass a significant portion of my career and accomplishments, but far from the totality of
my professional accomplishments and capabilities. A resume of the various films and TV projects I've done is on the Creature Gallery website, along with ample career work photographs.
This work allows me to appraise issues of costume suits, masks and similar movie effects with an experienced eye.

I am also a wildlife artist who pioneered a new form of wildlife sculpture, recreations of endangered species depicted with all the realism of world class taxidermy, but without using any
natural remains of the species portrayed. This recreation work lead me to be awarded two "Best In World" Recreation awards at the World Taxidermy Championships (1988 and 1992), an
event regarded by many as the "Olympics" of taxidermy and wildlife art. And at the next two events, I lectured and judged in my specialty. This work allows me to appraise the anatomy of
real living wildlife species with an expert's background.

I am a 3D computer graphics professional who has pushed the envelope in 3D visualizations of ancient architecture, and my visualizations of the Seven Ancient Wonders of the World were
named as a "Milestone" in computer graphics, in the 2002 Special Retrospective on major milestones in the 25 years that computer graphics have been technically possible, featured in
Computer Graphics World magazine. This work prepared me well for the Digital Visualization of the Bluff Creek Site which I have reconstructed in a 3D visualization software, and have
described in this report.

I have designed exhibit models and animatronics for exhibits, for museums and theme parks alike, and I developed a complete exhibit in joint collaboration with the San Diego Museum of
Man, called "Faces on Fossils". This exhibit presented an educational display of how human ancestral figures are visualized from the fossil remains, and it reflects my strong (self-taught)
academic background in paleoanthropology.

Finally, I am an inventor of a digital character lip sync animation software, and hold the patent as sole inventor, which reflects my capacity to solve problems, because the very process of
invention is a classic problem-solving endeavor. We find solutions that elude other people who think only in terms of what has been done, or what established paths one should take to reach a
successful solution. This is applicable to my research in the Patterson-Gimlin film because the film represents a classic problem in search of a solution, to resolve the question of what it is we
see walking away from camera in that film.
