Howard Berger

Howard Berger was, with Greg Nicotero, in charge of special make-up effects for Torchwood: Miracle Day.

, Nicotero and he formed KNB Efx Group in 1988. KNB's best-noticed work was likely on. That work was awarded both a BAFTA and an Oscar. However, due to a quirk in the rules for the American Academy's "Best Make-up" category, only two individuals can be nominated for a single work. Consequently, Berger won both awards, while Nicotero only won a BAFTA. That said, Berger worked on with Nicotero, but got no Emmy Award, while Nicotero got two.

Berger is the only person, as of 2011, to receive an prior to working in the Doctor Who universe.

Berger's resumé is extensive, as he's been solidly working on multiple projects each year since the 1980s. However, some points of commonality with others who've worked in the DWU — aside from Nicotero — include: and, both scored by John Debney; The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, featuring Jim Broadbent;  on which he was a consulting producer alongside associate producer Skip Schoolnik, production designer Gregory Melton and editor Hunter M. Via; and  featuring Toby Jones and production designed by Melton.

Although Nicotero and Berger have jointly worked on many of the same projects, their resumés aren't carbon copies of each other. For instance, only Nicotero worked on Casino Royale featuring Joseph Millson.
