The first of the C.S. Lewis Chronicles of Narnia to be made into a movie is The Lion, the Witch and The Wardrobe, and it has been filmed and produced in New Zealand by Disney and Walden Media, with Kiwi director Andrew Adamson.
Ian Brodie has been on set and on location throughout its production, and has documented the making of the film from behind the cameras, including interviews with the director and key crew members. Using this movie as a specific example, he explains to younger readers the magical process of turning a much-loved classic of children′s literature into a blockbuster movie.
Through the latest Computer Generated Imaging techniques, the fabulous creatures of Narnia will astound viewers. This book describes how Aslan and Mr Tumnus were created, and why the centaurs look so real. Dolly grips, gaffers, clapperloaders and best boys are also explained, and the process of making a movie is documented with over 200 full-colour movie and behind-the-camera images.
This will be a valuable teaching tool and a superb record of a much-loved movie, with anecdotes and information to delight in equal measure.
