1:46 am - SomeWHAT FRUStrating
|
WE have reCEIVED BACK the ROBOT DOUBLES we dePLOYED to San DIEGO LAST WEEK for COMICon at the REQUEST of the_pr.
NEW LINE STAFF... inFORMed us... that the DOUBLES passed as SEAN, ANdy, ELIJah and DOMinic all but unNOticed. The doubles SPOKE at a presenTATION, gave AUTOGRAPHS and interACTED with FANS, and NO ONE suspected that they were NOT the REAL ACTORS. Thanks to FRAN and PHILLIPA's INPUT, we inCORPORATED... several SCRIPTED BEHAVIORS... to GUIDE FAN PERCEPTION of the 'actors' in this ALL-IMPORTANT runup... to the RELEASE... of the THIRD FILM.
THESE beHAVIORS included FOND interACTION between the HOBBIT ACTORS' ROBOT DOUBLES, some CHEEKY, and HETeroSEXUAL, innuENDO from DOMinic, graTUITOUS WRESTLING... between SEAN and ELIJAH... to UNDERscore the imPORtant SAM AND FRODO reLAtionship, and in a TOUCH I find inGENious, an ESCAPE from seCURity for ELIJAH which ADDed veriSIMILItude.
HowEVer, New Line WAS a little DISAPPOINTED that the ROBOTS DID NOT LAST. We CONTINUE TO HAVE this PROBLEM with the JAW apparATUS... WEARING OUT... rather QUICKly. The HAND, of the SEAN DOUBLE, also FAILED due to AUTOgraph signing, which was exPECTed. BUT the small ROTORS around the MOUTH tend, to WEAR OUT, within a DAY or TWO desPITE our BEST EFFORTS.
The sole exCEPTION is the DOMinic DOUBLE, which reMAINS inTACT. Our THEORY is that because the ACTOR'S JAW is somewhat CROOKED, the ROBOT'S GEARS suffer LESS WEAR from the ACTION of SPEAKING. The JAWS of the OTHER ROBOTS have all COME LOOSE. It is QUITE disTRESSing. We at WETA... PRIDE OURSELVES... on our suPERIOR WORKmanship.
It will be VERY INTERESTING to receive the CATE BlanCHETT ROBOT DOUBLE back from her recent TALK SHOW APPEARANCE and EXAMINE IT for SIGNS of SIMILAR FATIGUE.

1:03 am - Beards and Bairns
|
MY TEAM, of CONSUMMATE PROFESSIONALS, nevertheless were UNABLE TO FULFILL a request made by PETER JACKSON for an INSTANT prosthetic beard for ARAGORN.
I feel very STRONGLY that we should NOT BE CAUGHT OUT should this HAPPEN AGAIN. We are IN the final STAGES of shooting the GREATEST FANTASY EPIC of OUR TIME, and we CANNOT SWAY from the path BEFORE us.
ThereFORE, I want PROSTHETIC BEARDS to be MADE UP for all BEARDED CHARACTERS IN THE FILM so that, SHOULD this HAPPEN AGAIN, we will be ONE HUNDRED PERCENT PREPARED.
I NOTICED that HUGO's, ADORABLE CHILDREN, were ON SET TODAY. I FOUND their EXPRESSIONS ARRESTING, so MUCH SO that I was COMPELLED to CAPTURE THEM in a SKETCH.
THE CHILDREN seemed to TAKE to the SET QUITE NATURALLY. PERHAPS PETER would consider A FILM IN THE STYLE of The Bad Seed IF they TURN OUT to SHARE THEIR FATHER'S TALENT.
I'M SURE my team would be HAPPY to WORK ON SUCH A FILM. It would MAKE a NICE CHANGE after the MASSIVE SCALE of King Kong and Evangelion.
NOW, to WORK on those BEARDS-- THROUGH THE NIGHT, if NECESSARY.
