James Cameron, director and creator behind the oncoming train called “Avatar” was cornered and interviewed last week in San Diego at the annual Comic-Con. James gets his Nerd on pretty good as he discusses filming in 3d and Peter Jackson’s production of the Hobbit with Aintitcool’s Quint.
A quote:
Quint: That’s how it should be! Let the story dictate what is in 3-D and what is not.
James Cameron: The space is the space, so it’s whatever space you want the people to experience. Do you want them to feel very close to the characters? Do you want them to feel immersed in the moment? When you are tracking down a corridor, do you want to feel like you are in a corridor? Or are you interested in a more stacked composition that’s very long lensy? I’ve done both in this film and sometimes what you are saying artistically at a given moment maybe is not best served by 3-D, in which case I just sort of forget about it. Who cares? Every shot doesn’t have to be the best 3-D shot in history.
“Avatar” in it’s full glory will be in theatres in Dec. There will be a special sneak peek at “Avatar” coming on Aug 21. Once again, thanks Aintitcool.
