Yeah, this was cool. I hadn’t read about John Bruno’s work on this flick, and the motion capture was just awesome!

As noted in the introductory text, this is a multipart interview. John Bruno did indeed say in my conversations with him that Joe Letteri was the best he’d ever worked with, and this will be included in a forthcoming post. But I would also say that with a film production as sprawling as that of Avatar, no individual interview is likely to be “complete,” in the sense of giving the full story of the film’s many years of groundbreaking VFX work; no Q&A can really seek to be as comprehensive as a several-thousand-word magazine feature. Rather, for a film so heavily covered in the press as this one, what we were seeking to do in interviewing John Bruno was to add to the existing coverage in a way that fills in holes in the public’s knowledge. Weta (which, incidentally, declined our request for an interview) has been, deservedly, much written about with regard to its extraordinary work on this film, and I don’t think it’s any secret that Joe Letteri’s work on this film was brilliant. Bruno, on the other hand, an Oscar winner who has worked on all of Cameron’s films since the 1980s and made significant contributions to Avatar, has been little interviewed this year. We think that getting some of his thoughts on the record is an important contribution to the public discussion of the film.

Why there is no mention of Joe Letteri ? Is this another incomplete interview like the cnet’s ?
