Roger Rabbit

Roger Rabbit

Robert Zemeckis hat MTV ein Interview zum kommenden Roger Rabbit Sequel und dessen Produktionstechnik gegeben, so soll der Film mit Hilfe von CGI-Motioncapturing entstehen, die Charaktere sollen dabei allerdings zweidimensional bleiben.

During a recent interview with MTV News’ Josh Horowitz, Zemeckis made his clearest statement yet that he’ll use mo-cap for the human actors and that the movie will be partly in 3-D.

“All the other characters that [the cartoons] would sort of have fun with would be magnificent in performance capture technology,” he explained.

Inherent in this admission is the matter of 3-D technology. Starting with “The Polar Express” in 2004, all of Zemeckis’ mo-cap movies have also been in three dimensions. So when the director talks about using performance-capture, he’s also talking about making “Roger Rabbit” partly in 3-D. But he also ruled out using 3-D or mo-cap when it comes to the cartoons, including the title rabbit and his voluptuous beau, Jessica.

“I wouldn’t use it for the cartoon characters, because I think they should stay two-dimensional because that’s what — I wouldn’t dimensonalize Roger,” he said. “And I couldn’t dimensonalize Jessica even if I wanted to because she doesn’t have a nose. We wouldn’t want to give her a nose.”
