Bournemouth artist has work featured in Henry Sugar by Wes Anderson

Trevor Hill created pieces of artwork specifically for The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar.

His work includes 3D models of children and a tree which is featured in scenes of the movie.

Directed by Wes Anderson and starring Benedict Cumberbatch, The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar follows a rich man who sets out to master an extraordinary skill to cheat at gambling.

Trevor said it was “overwhelming” to see his work featured in “something of this magnitude”.

He told the Daily Echo: “It wasn’t the biggest part in the movie but seeing the few seconds of each part I worked on made me very proud and excited.”

Also the owner of popular Bournemouth restaurant Ojo Rojo, Trevor began experimenting with a 3D printer during the second Covid lockdown.

Since then, he has expanded his collection of printers from one to four and has begun work on a handful of diverse projects.

Trevor describes himself as a “true comic geek at heart” with most of his work centred around film and comic props or statues.

However, he has also helped to create pin badges for charities and personalised keyrings as gifts for loved ones.

The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar is the biggest project he has worked on to date.

The opportunity to feature his work in the film was brought about by his brother. Trevor said: "My brother works with Wes Anderson now and again.

"When the need for some 3D printed bits for the film came up he put my name forward and I was chosen to complete the job.

“I printed and created the model of the tree that is in the levitating Yogi scene. The set developers used my model to create the large tree on the set.

“I also 3D printed the children models that are inherently on the scenes that the camera pans through before opening up into a real scene.

“I am very proud to have had my work featured.”
