The Hobbit, is a film co written fantasy saga, produced and directed by Peter Jackson, inspired by the british novel The Hobbit written by J.R.R Tolkien. This project is the continuation of the adaptation from the trilogy « The Lord of the Ring » also produced by Peter Jackson.
The video bellow the scene shows how the animation supervisors worked on the animation of the fantastic characters in this case we are talking about the troll’s, the system used is the motion capture stage. So that when they are framing the shot they can see each other because their motions are translated into the camera. This shows us that the team has experience, because they work with each other for a long time now. I think that this saga will dazzle us in the years to come.

It’s always interesting to see how people works on that kind of movie!
I’m so impressed by Smaug ! He’s so big, and the details of his skin are so well done !
I love to see those Behind the Scene’s videos, this really help us to understand how it function.
What a moment ! Simon have you ever seen how Malygos ups the Fireball ?
Interesting video, when we watch the film, we don’t realize the huge work that can be provided by people working in animation and special effects ; it’s great to see the other side of screen 🙂
