His interest in live action production led to an assignment as a gag man/storyboard artist on his first film, Herbie Goes To Monte Carlo. Cook's abilities as animator and sculptor led to work on such films as Caveman and Q, as well as solo stints as Visual Effects Supervisor on such films as The Gate and I, Madman.
