Sigourney talks about the Avatar premiere, Arnold Schwarzenegger sitting in front of Jimmy during the movie, the amazing visual effects and motion capture technology, working with perfectionist James Cameron on this film and on Aliens, preparing to play a fourteen-year-old in the movie, and getting in trouble a lot as a kid because she was the tallest.

@gxvgxv94 Год назад

I love that Weaver is so defensive about the difference between animation and motion capture. Those actors poured their souls into those characters and she wants him to acknowledge that

@blengi Год назад

yeah she's right to correct him. The post processing of motion capture is little different from an actor putting on makeup, except it's digital make up. No one thinks the acting is anything less due to make up/prosthetics/costumes in some cases it's even more of a testament to the actor to endure or utilize such things, and the fact they can reposition camera vantage point is the same thing as just taking different angles of the action on multiple takes.

@gabrielmoro3d Год назад

Right? I loved that. And I love how she explained there’s much more to it with stunt people and VFX from Weta.

@mikewhocheeseharry5292 Год назад

Yes, they’re the souls of their Avatar characters. It would take a lot more time and difficulty if it was animation, and the movements and acting wouldn’t look as realistic.

Elegance goes beyond fancy brands and jewelry. Sigourney Weaver is an icon of elegance. The way she speaks, how seriously she took the interview although Jimmy was clowning around, how well she elaborates her thoughts. A true lady!

@vb8428 Год назад

Definitely wasn't elegant to try and downplay the work vfx artists and stunt doubles did on this film

There is something wonderfully authentic about Sigourney Weaver. Her, along with Jessica Lange, just have a real honest, genuine nature to their character. Maybe that hurt their careers as Streep gobbled up all of the good roles from the 90s onwards, but I really appreciate how they don't mess around and just speak openly whenever they're interviewed.
