Peter Jackson opened up his Wellington studios last week to give roughly two hundred people a sneak peek at footage from "King Kong" reports Variety.
All guests, including exhibitor reps, international distributor UIP and a Universal Pictures delegation, were obliged to sign confidentiality agreements. Jackson screened 18 minutes of footage of the $160 million remake, showing off his Weta digital workshop and lavish sound mixing facility.
Displaying some of the miniatures, he explained how he told his tech crew the miniature forest had to show the effect of wind rippling the branches and leaves as the big ape lumbers through it - apparently a feat never pulled off before.
Thanks to 'Booga'
