what I think was a combination
of the three best actors for the parts

:25:07
and also the three best chemically.
:25:10
They played as if they were friends.
:25:13
You believed that they could live
on this island and...

:25:18
It really... We were very lucky
that we got our first choices for all these parts.

:25:23
We were lucky with them.
We offered the part to Paxton, he took it,

:25:26
we offered the part to Sir Ben, he took it
:25:28
and we offered the part to Tony Edwards -
he took it.

:25:32
We were blessed with good casting
and that's about 80 per cent of it.

:25:37
Here's an interesting example of set extension.
:25:40
What really existed here was that car front,
:25:44
which was another Ford product placement,
and the steps.

:25:49
The rest of that is all set extension,
all drawn in the computer.

:25:54
Here we are, back at Pinewood.
:25:59
Get a load of the sound design.
:26:02
That's gotta hurt.
:26:05
Glenn Freemantle, our sound designer -
an absolute genius.

:26:09
Again, given the brief that what we needed to do
was create a tone...

:26:17
almost a comic book tone. There are
frying pan jokes here, there's neck cracking.

:26:23
There's some wonderful stuff in this sequence,
:26:26
where the sound helped us keep the tone light.
:26:35
Here's the plot point.
:26:44
This whole sequence was challenging
:26:46
in that we have three sets, essentially,
to keep alive.

:26:50
Jeff's office
turns into the Command and Control Centre.

:26:54
The kids have just crawled into the vents
with the hope of saving the day
