BRIAN UIGA has been building gadgets and props since the 1990s when he was a 10-year-old "Star Trek" and "Doctor Who" fan and was inspired to create some of the iconic hardware that he saw on screen. Brian designs precision optical film scanning equipment for Lasergraphics. He owns a collection of full-size movie cars which he loans out to charity or police fundraiser events with the group of TV and movie cars at Star Car Central.com. These include an interactive robotic version of "Herbie the Love Bug" built using bits and pieces of wrecked stunt cars from 2005's "Herbie: Fully Loaded", a screen-used "Horace the Hate Bug" evil twin car from the 1997 TV remake of "The Love Bug", and a replica of the radio-controlled gadget-laden BMW 7 series from "Tomorrow Never Dies". You can see more of Brian's car collection of "STAR CARS" webseries at CRAVE Online.

Brian was the technical lead on Paul Salamoff's restoration of the screen-used DOCTOR WHO "TARDIS Console" time machine set piece from the 1996 Paul McGann TV movie. He also designed a transforming "Super Pursuit Mode" Knight Rider car and a gadget-laden "Goldfinger" Aston Martin for friends, and acting as Art Director on the "Untitled Web Series About a Space Traveler Who Can Also Travel Through Time", a.k.a. the "Not Inspector Spacetime Webseries". Brian is honored to be part of the restoration team for a set that, through Michael Okuda's iconic graphic designs, influenced nearly every piece of notable technology for the last 25 years, from flash drives to iPads.
