because it had to have weight
and also had to be intense.

:57:04
Gentlemen, it's been a privilege
robbing with you.

:57:08
Again, one of those group shots
in which seven animators all cooperate...

:57:11
on something that's only on-screen
for two seconds.

:57:18
Spike, who's about to show up here...
:57:20
for his moment with Sinbad
before they leap over the edge...

:57:23
was a bit of a late addition,
and if you're watching closely...

:57:26
you might wonder how Sinbad's able
to kneel down and pat Spike...

:57:29
when he's tied so closely to Marina.
:57:33
It's a lovely little goodbye
that we felt was worth adding.

:57:38
It takes a lot of work to do something
bright white in animation...

:57:41
so that gateway and how the light chews
into their silhouette...

:57:44
leaving them sort of soft-edged.
:57:46
That's actually harder to do
than leaving them sort of crisp.

:57:49
But it mimics what happens in the real world
with bright white light on film.

:58:14
The following bit
with sweeping oceans of sand...

:58:18
almost didn't make it into the movie.
:58:21
We were late in the production,
and were looking at how complex...

:58:24
and how difficult it was going to be
to produce.

:58:26
But Damon and his crew sold it
in animatic form...

:58:29
and Jeffrey loved it so much that
he sort of broke down obstacles for us...

:58:34
and made it possible for us
to put this in the movie.

:58:36
Denise added that right there.
:58:40
Denise Koyama came up
with a lot of the ideas for Tartarus...

:58:44
the visuals for this part.
:58:46
Pretty intricate 3-D set going on here...
:58:49
with sand blowing across the surface...
:58:51
and having that interact
with the actual buildings...

:58:54
and have monsters walk on it.
:58:57
Pretty incredible for how late
this idea came into the film.
