DVD Guys

DVD-guys

Sitting here, drawing while watching DVD bonus features. Actually, I'm waiting for a producer to get back to me on something, so I don't feel I can get away at the moment. Only one of those guys (maybe two) really look like who they're supposed to be, so I'm not going to tell you what film it was.

Feel like I'm working a little bit, because you do learn things about films by listening to extras and DVD commentaries. It's actually pretty amazing that they do these. Actually, it's "The Incredibles." Man, I'm glad I'm not an animator. Can't draw the same thing twice.

The guy is the lower left hand corner wasn't in that at all. In fact he's Morton Feldman, fantastically ugly but interesting-looking avante-garde composer.

Actually, he's the perfect male version of Edna Mode from that movie, but in real life. Late, now, however.

I love the bonus features and behind scenes of the making bits on the DVDs. Seeing the two concept artists working on the LOTR films made me quite jealous, that was one cool job to have! The only issue is that have more talent in their little fingers than I would have if you multiplied me by a thousand!

I had a cool job which is a little hard to describe, but I worked on a DVD that got into the Return of the King Set. I was doing writing for the documentary segments for Howard Shore's Lord of the Rings Concert DVD.

Got to go through a lot of the art (on video, which was strange), and choose appropriate things, working with (and having to please!) people in four different cities across the globe. Pretty panic-making, but quite an experience!

Very happy to get those themes out of my head. Orcs and Gollums are fun to draw, though.
