A Few New Avatar Behind-the-Scenes Photos from Empire
April 24, 2009

by Alex Billington
Everyone should already know that anytime anything from James Camerons' Avatar shows up, I've got to post it. The latest issue of Empire magazine features a few new behind-the-scenes shots of Cameron in action. Our friends over at MarketSaw have scanned a few of the photos, however, we're just going to show you the two of them full-size and won't include any of the cropped background elements. The MarketSaw guys actually Photshopped out some of the screens and characters in the background, but that's a bit crazy, and you can't really see anything anyway (but you can look if you want). Check out the two scans below.
In the top photo, Cameron "could observe the actors [left monitor] in a rough version of the final CG environment [right monitor]." With this kind of groundbreaking technology, "the actor can be any character they can imagine and the director can create any world, any time and any space," Cameron says. "We've eliminated the animation from animation." Additionally, while we know that Peter Jackson and Steven Spielberg fell in love with his technology when Cameron showed it to them, it was also revealed that both J.J. Abrams and Guillermo del Toro were invited to check it out. Stay tuned for more on Avatar.

I know you can't really tell, but the blown up images from the screen look pretty good from something being generated from ON THE SET.

And the middle monitor then shows…. ? Well I hope that the final product will be as good as they say, sounds at least very promising! But it would be really nice if they'd release some phootage soon which doesn't show 'just' behind the scene shots…

In all fairness…no footage…no trailer…no teaser…no set photos…and all hype on a photo realistic 3D movie can kill a movie…Fanboys will tear it apart if nothing comes out soon to give us a sense of the work being done….

I still can't believe that Sam Worthington has the lead role in this movie, can't wait for this movie.

Worthington was actually recommended to McG by James Cameron. Cameron loves him. Was very impressed by his talent and professionalism.

Do you know what's gonna kill this movie? All the bland, rubbish 3D movies that's gonna open between now & December. Your average cinema goer isn't going to know about the techno acheivements of Avatar & Cameron, just is it going to be another shit 3D?
And I'm afraid this is going to happen.

Im with #9

#9 is right. I think we have waited long enough Mr. Cameron. Show us some real footage and not just behind the camera shit.
Alex I have no idea as to why you would even post this man. I know you love movies and so do I, but I want the real deal man.
Either way this film should return Cameron to doing what he does best. Kick Ass Sci-fi Action films.
