I'll write a little bit about the article but be warned of spoilers below. I'll leave the specific spoiler details to you find at /Film (at the bottom of the post). Some people would not like to know any details, so please beware.
Sorry, no photos of the Cloverfield Monster yet.
Building a Better Monster
The producers left out one key detail of the Cloverfield Monster: Where it's from.Personally, I'm not a big fan of these "blackboard" scenes so it's nice to hear they didn't waist their time trying to get all technical. For those of you who have read this blog over the length of the Cloverfield chaos (thank you!) you'll know a bunch of people tried to claim they had the storyline to Cloverfield. Many claimed the Cloverfield storyline had these "blackboard' scenes with scientists and all kinds of detailed explanations. It's nice to know we can officially rule them out.
"And where is he from? “We don’t say – deliberately,” notes (Cloverfield writer Drew) Goddard. “Our movie doesn’t have the scientist in the white lab coat who shows up and explains things like that. We don’t have that scene."
(via /Film) The visual effects for “Cloverfield” were produced under the direction of visual effects supervisors Kevin Blank, Eric Leven of Tippett Studio and Michael Ellis of London-based Double Negative. Tippett created all the shots that include the monsters, while Double Negative was responsible for all of the other destruction and sequences which did not include the monster.
The concept for the Cloverfield Monster (affectionately known simply as “Clover” in-house) is simple, says Abrams. “He’s a baby. He’s brand-new. He’s confused, disoriented and irritable. And he’s been down there in the water for thousands and thousands of years.”
And where is he from? “We don’t say – deliberately,” notes Goddard. “Our movie doesn’t have the scientist in the white lab coat who shows up and explains things like that. We don’t have that scene.”
For the monster’s design, Abrams engaged veteran creature designer Neville Page, who had just finished creating characters for James Cameron’s upcoming “Avatar” (and is currently working on Abrams’ “Star Trek”).
