(Telefonisch) interview Jake Morrison - De visual effects van Ant-man
Nov 04, 2015

DVD.nl is in de gelegenheid om een telefonisch interview te doen met Jake Morrison - De visual effects supervisor van Ant-man, maar ook van de meeste Marvelfilms, LOTR, Harry Potter en nog veel meer. Nu willen we ons natuurlijk goed voorbereiden om straks een paar goede vragen te kunnen stellen. Dus graag vraag ik jullie hulp en suggesties. He interview staat gepland op 23, 25 of 27 november, wanneer precies is een verassing. Vooralsnog ga ik er vanuit dat de focus ligt op Ant-man. Mijn eerste les was al 'open vragen stellen'. Eén die verplicht tot antwoorden. Hier alvast wat ideeën.

First of all I want to thank you for your time and the opportunity to do this interview.

I'm a true Marvelfan myself, so I love these stories. How did you approach these movies? As a fan? And if so, how did this influence your work?

Could you talk about what is often called 'The single most terrifying, but stunning visual effect' in the movie?

How exactly did get Michael Douglas to look so young? Could you tell us more about Lola VFX aging and de-aging compositing?

The beginning of Peyton Reed’s Ant-Man features an absolutely stunning visual effect. Set in the late 1980s, the sequence puts a spotlight on a digitally de-aged Michael Douglas as he berates some head members of S.H.I.E.L.D., and you’d think the guy just stepped off of the set of Wall Street. As amazing as it is, however, it was this moment in the film that the director found to be the most terrifying of the entire production – knowing that the effect would be a huge make-or-break moment for the movie. Quote regisseur: The single most terrifying visual effect in the movie to me is scene one in the S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters with Michael Douglas… If that didn’t work, we were screwed, because you’re going to be in some weird uncanny valley as a viewer. ‘That’s terrible. This doesn’t work. I’m out.’ You could potentially lose an audience member in the very first scene if that didn’t work. http://www.cinemablend.com/new/Most-Terrifying-Visual-Effect-Ant-Man-According-Director-72631.html http://www.vulture.com/2015/07/how-did-ant-man-make-young-michael-douglas.html

As an special effects supervisor you were involved in so many films, how would you rate the special effects used in Ant-man compared to some other major films you have worked on?

People seen so many superhero movies. Do you think these movies still have a long and lasting future?

Categorie: ask a stupid question get a stupid answer.

The film has done very well in the box-office, what were your expectations?

How was the overall experience in making this film, did you have fun or was it really hard work?

Are there any hints or secrets you want to share for the upcoming sequel?

Graag jullie hulp en schroom niet als je iets ruk vindt of een betere vraag hebt, graag zelfs!
