The Learning Curve Is 'the Hobbit' Is

I Wanted To Be A Painter, Really, When I Was Growing Up As A Kid. It Was One Thing That Really Took A Grip On Me.

The Process Of Acting Is No Different [playing Human Or Ape]. You're Embodying The Character. You're Creating The Psychology And The Physicality. You're Living The Moment.

Caesar [from The Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes] Was Brought Up With Human Beings And Because Of The Drug He Had Pretty Much Grown Up With His Whole Life, He Felt Like An Outsider, He Felt Trapped In An Ape's Body But He Didn't Really Feel Like An Ape And That Was My Way Into The Character. So He's Always Had This Duality Playing Him From An Infant All The Way To Now As A Fifty-five Year Old Ape.

That's Why I Ended Up Going To Lancaster University, Because They Had A Visual Arts Course, And In The First Year It Was Like A Broad Visual Arts Course In Sculpture, Painting, Graphics - All Of That.

The Learning Curve Is 'the Hobbit' Is Being Shot In 3d.
