James Cameron WGA interview on screenwriting and Avatar
Last month, after a screening of Avatar at the Writers Guild Theater for WGA members, James Cameron spoke with F. X. Feeney about his writing process throughout his career and in the creation of Avatar. I know a lot of people like to make the easy jokes, and write off Avatar for having an over-simplistic plot, but for anyone who really wants to delve deeper — you should really find time to listen to this one hour and ten minute interview/question & answer session.

Mark Coleran on Fantasy User Interfaces
I just interviewed Mark Coleran. Mark is a visual and interface designer. Part of his work has been in designing “fantasy user interfaces”: the computer interfaces that you see in movies. He’s designed interfaces for films that include Mission Impossible 3, The Island, The Bourne Identity, and Children of Men. There’s been a bit of a stir about Mark’s work lately, though Mark is keen to point out that he’s hardly the only person doing this work. I wanted to find out how you design computer visuals that are more dramatic than, well, actually using a computer.

Wes Anderson - The Treatment on KCRW
Martin Scorsese once called Wes Anderson (Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou) his logical heir. Is it the way Anderson creates tension in the room or did Scorsese one day imagine Anderson at work in stop-action animation? The director of Fantastic Mr. Fox joins Elvis Mitchell on The Treatment.
Anderson, who loved the Roald Dahl book on which the film is based, explains how he got permission from the Dahl family to use ‘Danny, the Champion of the World’ in his screenplay, and that he cast George Clooney, not because of his voice but because he’d always wanted to work with him. He reveals why he made the animals American and the humans British, and how he based the movements of Rat (voiced by Willem Dafoe) on the choreography of Bob Fosse. Finally, he discusses finding inspiration in Ray Harryhausen and the Brothers Quay, the importance of doing a stop-motion animation film with fur, and how this style involves more decision-making than a live-action film.
