Paul Franklin, head of visual effects for both Christopher Nolan's Batman movies, recently sat down with Screen Junkies, and offered some insight on what we should expect.
On whether actress Anne Hathaway would be digitalized of some sort for her feline role as Selina Kyle, “No, no, not at all,” Franklin said. “We always start something like this trying to keep it as real as possible. We would only ever resort to digital doubles for some stunt moments or things like that. We try to keep them real. That’s the way Chris likes to make a film.”
On whether Tom Hardy's 'Bane' would require any CGI, Franklin says, “You’d have to ask Chris. I think he has his plan but we’re at a very, very early stage on the picture at the moment. Obviously Two-Face was an example of fantastic digital prosthetic. They put tracking markers on Aaron Eckhart’s face and replaced one side of his face with CG. So that obviously had to be a digital thing but it’s based on a real performance. Aaron was delivering the lines, giving the performance.”
“We try to keep it different every time. There might be a few things, maybe features of Gotham City that will turn up again to give it some sort of visual continuity. Obviously we’ll try and keep some sort of thematic style with that but really, it’s a film in its own right.”
Hmm... interesting.
