Script Report: SPIDER-MAN
October 3rd, 2000
While talking to Popcorn, Director Sam Raimi discussed the status of production, saying, "We're currently doing final script revisions on the SPIDER-MAN story and we're building the sets on the Sony lot. It has three different sound stages that have sets in different stages of completion. I'm scouting locations in New York and Los Angeles. We're casting the picture. We're actually just working in every phase of production you can imagine."
About CGI and visual effects he added, "...we're doing a tremendous amount of ground breaking visual effects work to really pull off the illusion that SPIDER-MAN exists. We're not after a lot of special effects. Our real goal is to bring Stan Lee's great creation, SPIDER-MAN, to the screen. We're trying to be as true as possible. In so doing, some of the many outrageous things SPIDER-MAN is capable of that are impossible to film with real person, so there's a need to generate the kind of special effect to pull off that illusion so that the audience believes that SPIDER-MAN exists swinging above the city of New York 60 stories up battling the Green Goblin who's flying around on his goblin glider."
Sounds like some very cool stuff. We'll keep yeah posted!
