1. SOUNDBITE (English) Wes Ball, director:
"I think people do not understand the level of craft and artistry that is involved in making these movies. That's the VFX, but that's also all the production work that we do, all the things we build, all those different things. And, I think people are going to love it. Certain geeks will love it. I will love it. I'm sure there are others out there too. But yeah, you're going to be able to watch the raw dailies, basically of the movie and the movie form. They'll be in a little a little window there that shows the final picture too. So it won't be, it'll be very interesting to watch, to see how the actors, how they look and how close it really is. I mean, you can look at the two images and be like, oh my God, it really is him. It's just an ape. So it's really fascinating stuff, and I think it's just, you know, I think it's criminal that these apes movies have never won a Visual Effects award, I mean on Oscars. I think it's crazy. So I'll do my part to change that."
