which is the first reading of the script
after everyone has been cast,

1:00:07
before we start shooting.
1:00:09
And at the table read he heard
what was in the script.

1:00:13
Tim Bevan, our producer,
asked him to take a look,

1:00:16
at specifically the Parker, Lady P scenes.
1:00:21
This is the best example of it right here.
1:00:38
Another shameless use of sound.
1:00:43
Here we go. Here's the part Curtis...
1:00:49
A great treat to pepper comedy
into an action sequence,

1:00:54
in a family movie.
1:00:55
And it's those moments I think
that make audiences,

1:00:59

1:01:02
"I enjoyed that, it wasn'tjust for the kids."
1:01:11
More added dialogue

Great use of inserts from Useful Companies.

Thunderbird 5 and Thunderbird 3
1:01:25

and the lighting and texturing
of those spaceships was so impressive

1:01:43
that it put all of us at ease with Framestore.
1:01:49
This had been their biggest project.
1:01:52
They had done bits of the Potter films before
and bits of Bond films

1:01:56
but this is the first film that they had
from beginning to end.
