This week I put on a suit. No ordinary suit. A motion capture suit, in the studios of the Victoria University of Wellington Miramar Creative Centre.
It’s next door to the likes of Weta Digital and Park Road Post, enabling a new generation of filmmakers to learn within the cutting edge environment that gave Wellywood its nickname.
I have to say – moving on the performance capture stage, I’m not exactly Andy-Serkis-as-Gollum level – but its quite the out-of-body experience. I got to be a fearsome Genghis Khan on a grand opera house stage.
