Visual Consultant Rick Carter Talks About Jurassic World and Star Wars VII

Visual Consultant Rick Carter has recently talked about the state of play with Jurassic World. Carter who previously worked on films such at Back To The Future and Avatar recently told ComingSoon,

(We’re going) To try and visualize where this could go next and make sure it had some the same—literally the same—the DNA of the previous movies. Ed Verreaux is the production designer on that one. He did the third ‘Jurassic Park.’ We’ve worked together going all the way back to ‘Back to the Future.’ It’s a real hand-off between the two of us.

Jurassic World is pencilled for a 2015 release. Carter will also be working on the equally anticipated Star Wars VII which is also set for 2015.

On Star Wars VII Carter said:

"I offered my services to Kathy Kennedy," Carter says of Episode VII, "who I had known for a long time. I said, 'If you're going to get involved with 'Star Wars' in this new generation, I'd love to be a part of the dialogue and help.' She invited me in last January and that's what I've been doing ever since. Then J.J. [Abrams] came in and we hit it off."

Paul Freeman talks about the famous 'fly' scene in an interview with TheIndyExperience.com and settled 'flygate:' This is a bit of a dicey question so don’t get too upset. (Laughs) A movie’s always got bloopers in it, some have a lot, and some only have three or four. And the most remarkable blooper was right before the opening of th...
