My first professional job yeah yeah (talks) uh it’s pretty damn good you know I didn’t get to work with John myself but I got to work with this beautiful lady next to me and that chap down there Jeremy obviously, Jeremy was obviously uh inspirational for me, very much a father figure you know he’s helped me out a lot and it’s a real treat to have that honor. |
| 01:03:41 221.22 |
Sound Bite: Edward Speleers
I’ve seen some of it (talks) I mean Hollywood’s an interesting place, if you go to the right places and you do the right things you can avoid the crap, you avoid the pretentiousness you can be right in the mix of it and that’s dangerous. |
| 01:03:57 237.24 |
Sound Bite: Edward Speleers
Hasn’t really I just get on planes more often then I used to, it hasn’t changed other than that. |
| 01:04:09 249.25 |
Sound Bite: Stefen Fangmeier
Worked at Industrial Light and Magic for fifteen of those and had a wonderful visual effects career so this was a transition that I hoped to make and you know this was the perfect project to do it. |
| 01:04:29 269.27 |
Sound Bite: Stefen Fangmeier
Yes or any first direct, my directorial debut so to speak (talks) Well yes because the studio actually asked me wouldn’t you first like to make a small film I said well all the ones I’ve worked on have sort of been these types of films, this is what I know how to do and in a way what I was really more concerned about and wanted to focus on was directing actors and you know I had a wonderful cast and really some great actors that I’ve respected over many years so it was really a pleasure to work with them. |
| 01:05:02 302.3 |
Sound Bite: Stefen Fangmeier
Uh I think yeah maybe five years ago by a fellow yeah seven years ago maybe, he started when he was 15 years he completed at 17 with the support of his family and so its really a great perspective cause he writes about the heroes as if it was himself you know its different then you know a 30 year old writing about being a teenager, he really was in that stage and I think that’s why his expression of the character the desires, the dreams and the feelings are so profound and that’s why I think young audiences really have connected with it. |
| 01:05:34 334.33 |
Sound Bite: Stefen Fangmeier
Yeah he lives in the middle of nowhere really home schooled you know and I think he’s an avid movie watcher, I think they watch 300 movies a year and you can sort of see the strong influence between Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, and all the different elements and yet he really created all of that which he’d seen before into a unique story and that’s why I really appreciate it. |
| 01:06:05 365.33 |
Sound Bite: Sienna Guillory
Uhm I play Arya she’s an Elf, she’s a princess, she’s a warrior she’s part damsel in distress but she’s got, she's kind of made of steel in the inside, she’s a slow mover she’s a hundred years old, she like slowly work romantically, she’s cool, I really admire her. |
| 01:06:41 401.4 |
Sound Bite: Sienna Guillory
Uhm I think I as just reallu blown away by the story and to play this part in the story, she’s she’s self sacrificing, she cares more about there can be hope in the world then her own gain, that I admire. |
| 01:07:01 421.42 |
Sound Bite: Sienna Guillory
Uhm this is kind of a simultaneous discovery I mean (talks) absolutely and he knows woman. |
| 01:07:20 440.41 |
Sound Bite: Christopher Paolini
It was the confluence of a huge number of different elements, one I had a lot of time on my hands because I graduated high school at fifteen so I had extra time on my hands, I was growing up and I wanted to write about that, I loved writing fantasy but most important of all my family supported me every day I was working on this and without them I wouldn’t be where I am now, families very thing. |
| 01:08:02 482.48 |
Sound Bite: Christopher Paolini
Uhm it was actually a fairly simple process, what happened was when Random House, when Random House uhm acquired Eragon uh they, Fox had herad of the movie and they approached us soon after Random House series and we got the offer and it just sort f has been going from there. |
