Fourth video diary for The Hobbit from Peter Jackson

You get more of a look at some of the aesthetics, the work put into creating a 3D movie, and a sneak peak at the actors themselves working. Thank you to everyone for being so great! I will always have these out to you as soon as they're available. And as you know, for disclaimer purposes, I own absolutely none of this. Just trying to share Peter Jackson's brilliance for the masses.

Thanks for vid. Those mirror camera's look huge. What i was wondering about the first time i heard they were shooting in 3d was how they would do the forced perspective they used in LOTR. You know when they use distance to make a human appear next to a dwarf or hobbit, wouldn't the 3d make that impossible?

I guess in the case of humans appearing next to hobbits they simply film both separately on a green screen using a different interaxial to account for the relative size of each, and then composite them digitally in the same 3D scene.

In the previous production video blogs, where they showed the dwarves, they have two sets of actors, the normal ones and also small ones. I think they'll use the normal ones for most of the acting and close ups and use the small ones for group shots or fighting scenes where the size difference must appear on screen.
