1:12:03
When there were two gods, yes...
1:12:05
That's how we leave the consolation prize
for Proteus...

1:12:07
where he salvaged the pretty lady
behind the bushes or something...

1:12:11
Somebody's mopping the floor...
1:12:12
He was moving on really quickly
after Marina takes off.

1:12:15
He certainly deserves a girl, doesn't he?
He's such a trouper, our Proteus.

1:12:20
There was one late-to-the-game
change here.

1:12:22
We actually showed the picture
in pretty much finished form...

1:12:25
to Steven Spielberg,
Jeffrey's partner in running DreamWorks...

1:12:28
and he had a very simple idea.
1:12:31
The very end of the scene
actually concluded...

1:12:33
not just with Marina saying, "Oh, Proteus,"
but with her adding, "Thank you."

1:12:36
Steven said, "'Thank you' doesn't work.
It makes Proteus weak.

1:12:40
"It actually diminishes."
1:12:41
And so she used to say "Thank you,"
as she turned her head...

1:12:44
and it was a very simple thing
to remove that lip sync.

1:12:47
Done very late in the game...
1:12:48
but it was an example
of how Steven can contribute...

1:12:53
with such a simple comment
and really strengthen a scene.

1:12:59
There's the dog again.
1:13:04
All right, Kale.
1:13:06
- Take us out.
- Aye, aye, Captain. Cast off!

1:13:13
You see a little more of Syracuse.
1:13:14
I'll show you my apartment
next time we cut back.

1:13:17
It's off and to the left.
Has a fantastic view of the water.

1:13:20
Beautiful paintings of the palace
by Richard Daskas...

1:13:23
and other scenes in here by Tianyi Han.
1:13:29
That's where they would have
gone off the lochs.

1:13:32
Yeah, off the edge of the world...
1:13:34
Notice it just sort of ends out there.
1:13:36
That's because there are giant
16-story lochs...

1:13:39
that hoist massive flagships
up into the city.

1:13:42
The mizzen ropes need the support.
1:13:47
These joints were from the Jasmine Sea.
1:13:50
Very tough stuff with the animation.
1:13:51
We ended up adding one second,
a mere 24 frames...

1:13:55
to the head of Sinbad's realization...
1:13:57
just to give him a little more time
to catch his breath.
