Im Juni hatten einige Twilight Fanseiten das Glück exklusiv mit Regisseur Bill Condon und seinem Team, bestehend aus Jack Morrissey "Team Jack" (auf den ich in meinem nächsten Post noch einmal zurückkommen werde), Jack Pan von Lionsgate und weiteren, über Breaking Dawn Part 2 zu sprechen.
Unter anderen waren auch Vertreter der Twilight Seiten
TeamTwilight,

So ein Twilight Interview wäre natürlich auch für uns das Nonplusultra.^^ Na mal sehen, eine Premiere + Promo steht uns ja noch bevor...

were given the opportunity to do an edit bay visit and participate in a
Q&A with Breaking Dawn director Bill Condon. While there, we were
treated a viewing of
Breaking Dawn 2 footage, and all I can
tell you is that it looks absolutely incredible, and left me with goose
bumps and a desire to see more. In short it is EPIC, and I just can’t
wait to see the movie in it’s entirety.
After we watched the footage, we had a Q&A session with Bill, his
associate movie editors Ian Slader and Ginny Katz and Greg Yolan who
Bill referred to as “in charge of everything else”. Also present was
Jack Morrissey from Team Jack, and Jack Pan from Lionsgate. I have to
say that Bill was extremely gracious and so thoughtful in all his
answers to us. He is truly a fan’s dream director .
Below is Part 1 of the transcript of the Q&A session. Enjoy!
Jack Pan: So who wants to start? (No one says anything)… They were all so blown away.
(Everyone laughs)
Jack: I couldn’t follow it
(Everyone laughs again)
Laura (Lexicon): I don’t know, I guess I’ll dive in. The trailer came
out today and I think we all probably played that like 3 million times,
not that there is anything wrong with that. And one of the things I
really liked is you saw glimpses of alternative points of view…
Bill: Right
Laura (Lexicon): Can you talk a little bit about how did you those;
maybe that’s a collaboration between you, Melissa Rosenberg, and
Stephenie Meyer, to decide which are the alternative points of view, and
how much fun was that to film something that is not in the book, other
than saying we traveled some place and came back. Like how much fun was
that, to go to that space?
Bill: Ya, I know, exactly like, for example; The Denali’s right? In
the book they come, and it just felt like, to get our lead characters
on the road together, in 3 different areas, was like an important thing
just for the scope of the movie. I think you’ll see. You get a glimpse
of it from the size of the main title. With this movie, it’s all about
scope in a weird way, and it’s all about like, canvasing the world for
all these vampires. So, that actually was, in very early days we made
that decision to do that, It’s a challenge because, we introduce, I
think it’s 23 new vampires, right? And, we do it in the second act, and
by the 3
rd act they’re on the battlefield and you have to get
to know them very quickly. Actually it was great fun for the actors.
Cause they all realized that they only had a moment or two, where they
had to land what it was that they did. So it was part of what drew me to
it. That it is a completely new part of Twilight that is getting
introduced in this movie.
Laura (Lexicon): Any one of those alternate point of view your favorite or is that like picking between your kids?
Bill: Yeah, it is. Definitely.
(Everyone Laughs)
Kallie: Well, I’ll go next. You mention the 23 new characters. I
mean, that is profound to me. We were talking about it at breakfast,
that that’s just a huge number of people to be working with on one set.
We saw a glimpse of it in the trailer. Of all of them lined up together.
Bill: Yeah, Yeah
Kallie: How was that as a director? I mean it’s kind of a feat to tackle that many characters.
Bill: It was like, putting on a play. You know, we did something that
you never do in movies. As you know from the book its 100 pages of the
book. Its 25 pages in the script. Taking precious time with the crew
standing around. We took a day and I staged it like a play, and we did
the entire 25 pages. And we just like, beat by beat by beat we had the
actors. So that it was just like staging a musical number almost. You
know, cause you’ll see it. In order to make that feel like it has life.
It doesn’t get monotonous to be there. I don’t think it does you know,
it’s part of like really making sure that you are doing very different
things through all that, section of the movie. But it was good.
