Superman Returns Director Talks About HD DVD Extras
Posted by Jeremy Charette in "CONTENT" @ 01:00 PM
""I think we're going to something called 'The In-Movie Experience' where you'll be able to be watching the movie and then instantly go to making-of footage. It's sort of the next evolution in running commentaries. Instead of just hearing the filmmakers or the actors talk over the scenes you'll be able to leap in and experience the making of the scenes and experience what we call 'B Roll.' You'll be able to leap to it right in the middle of watching the movie. My hope is that people experience the movie first and then go back and do this not do (it first)."
It's great to see movie directors thinking about how to use the new features available to them on HD DVD and Blu-Ray, and preparing for those features during production, rather than tacking them on after the movie is completed. I think features like this are really going to appeal to directors and producers, as it will allow them to share the trials and tribulations of movie-making with the audience, rather than just letting them see the finished product. Who doesn't like talking about themselves? :lol:
