While the majority of Peter Jackson's "The Lovely Bones" was shot on film, I was just told that "Lovely Bones Visual Effects elements and New Zealand aerials were shot on Red". Peter also told me he would send pics for us to post.

BTW... some on Build 16.

Looking forward to the pics. Thanks.
 
My Sources say Peter will shoot nothing other than RED soon.

Work flow issues (last year) and studio concerns slowed him up and so him and his team decided to go Film for now.

But you can garrantee, he weill be RED in the future now that work flow will be sorted soon with AVID.
 
Yeah, Andrew Lesnie confirmed this back at the end of May at the Australian Cinematographers Society ACS 50th anniversary event:

"During a panel on the "Future of the Image", Andrew Lesnie, ACS, ASC spoke about his involvement using RED, in that it "is now a very suitable system", that it has come along way, and that he used it a couple times alongside Super35mm on The Lovely Bones, Peter Jackson's new film.

Yep Peter, dont hesistate and send them here :biggrin:
 
Very prestigious!

Counting down till the "when will he release Crossing the Line" questions start up again... 5... 4... 3... 2...
 
Going from making "Meet The feebles" and "bad taste" to "Lord of the Rings" is beyond me ....

Kinda like going from making motorcycle handgrips to digital cinema cameras... :-)

Jarred, Deanan and I were lucky enough to spend 3 days with Peter last year (Crossing). He is delightful, wicked smart, driven and has a crew that will follow him into battle at the drop of a hat. What a great experience for all of us to see Peter in action.

The Lovely Bones is one of my favorite books from the past few years. It is one of the most original and touching coming of age stories I've ever read.

When I read books, there's a part of my brain that is always thinking about adaptation for the screen.

When I read The Lovely Bones, I had the thought in my mind of what an unusual and challenging movie it would be in the right hands. I'm really looking forward to seeing this.
