Извиняюсь, но из технических соображений невозможно было добавить оригинал прямо к строкам. Русские разбивания фраз и таймингов не соответствуют английским, так как базировались на немецких субтитрах (немецкий язык ближе к русскому по длине слов и предложений, чем английский).

Вот оригинал Big-atures.

1
01:45:18,898 --> 01:45:22,527
When l saw <i>Lord of the Rings</i>
at the cinema...

2
01:45:22,698 --> 01:45:28,455
...nothing made my heart soar more,
from our work, than the miniatures.

3
01:45:28,618 --> 01:45:33,453
The beauty and the awesome size
and nature of the miniatures...

4
01:45:33,618 --> 01:45:36,974
...has given the film
a wonderful reality...

5
01:45:37,138 --> 01:45:42,053
...and firmly makes you feel as though
you've journeyed to Middle-earth.

6
01:45:42,218 --> 01:45:46,496
lt's quite remarkable. lt's a testament
to Richard Taylor's work...

7
01:45:46,658 --> 01:45:51,254
...and to Alex Funke's great miniature
photography and lighting...

8
01:45:51,418 --> 01:45:54,535
...that brings these sequences to life.

9
01:45:54,738 --> 01:45:57,332
You've got to have real film footage.

10
01:45:57,498 --> 01:46:00,092
You can use digital technology
to blend.

11
01:46:00,258 --> 01:46:04,809
Some things you have to do digitally,
like the cave troll.

12
01:46:04,978 --> 01:46:06,934
There's no other way to do it.

13
01:46:07,138 --> 01:46:11,928
But if possible, you want to photograph
an object and stick it into the shots.

14
01:46:12,138 --> 01:46:15,972
There's something special about using
miniatures that Peter loves.

15
01:46:16,138 --> 01:46:19,926
He wanted to do as much with
large miniatures as he could.

16
01:46:24,098 --> 01:46:27,534
And they're not sets, then there's
several ways you can do it.

17
01:46:27,738 --> 01:46:31,731
You could use matte paintings,
build them in a computer...

18
01:46:31,898 --> 01:46:35,971
...or you can build models.
l always tend to favor models.

19
01:46:36,138 --> 01:46:39,733
Because they're interactive,
they're user-friendly.

20
01:46:39,938 --> 01:46:43,772
l was able to move cameras
pretty freely in the miniatures.

21
01:46:44,138 --> 01:46:47,210
l wanted lots of shots
of these environments.

22
01:46:47,378 --> 01:46:51,417
The problem with shooting miniatures
really is, they're never big enough.

23
01:46:51,618 --> 01:46:55,327
The basic rule is, the bigger
the miniature, the more realistic.

24
01:46:55,498 --> 01:47:01,175
You can give it more detail and the
light behaves realistically in the set.

25
01:47:01,338 --> 01:47:05,172
The decision to build to a particular
scale is always driven by:

26
01:47:05,338 --> 01:47:07,329
''What can we get into it?''

27
01:47:07,498 --> 01:47:12,811
We built them huge because we wanted
them to stand up to a lot of scrutiny.

28
01:47:12,978 --> 01:47:15,970
lt was like it always had to be
this big.

29
01:47:16,138 --> 01:47:19,255
l hate heights, and we have to go up
scissor lifts.

30
01:47:19,418 --> 01:47:22,728
l says, ''Can't we do miniature
miniatures? Why do we do big-atures?''

31
01:47:22,938 --> 01:47:25,771
And that name-- They said,
''Big-atures?''

32
01:47:25,938 --> 01:47:28,611
l said, ''Yes, they're big, not little.

33
01:47:28,778 --> 01:47:33,533
l want to reach the top
without putting my life on the line.''

34
01:47:38,858 --> 01:47:41,930
l'm standing in the miniature
of Rivendell.

35
01:47:42,098 --> 01:47:47,809
This is probably the most specifically
Alan Lee-esque design on the film.

36
01:47:47,978 --> 01:47:52,688
We tried to compliment the original
drawings of Alan exactly...

37
01:47:52,858 --> 01:47:56,294
...as we designed and built
this miniature.

38
01:47:56,458 --> 01:48:01,976
This job was a model-maker's dream
in that we were very, very lucky...

39
01:48:02,138 --> 01:48:08,088
...to be trusted to build from Alan
Lee's and John Howe's drawing boards.

40
01:48:08,258 --> 01:48:13,252
We were encouraged to work that way
because there was nothing between...

41
01:48:13,418 --> 01:48:17,536
...the execution of the model
and the pencil marks on the page.

42
01:48:17,698 --> 01:48:20,337
One of the treats that came
as a byproduct...

43
01:48:20,498 --> 01:48:24,332
...out of the building of Rivendell
was, while we built it...

44
01:48:24,498 --> 01:48:28,252
...Alan Lee was so attached
to this miniature...

45
01:48:28,418 --> 01:48:32,297
...that he'd come down regularly
and work on it with us.

46
01:48:32,458 --> 01:48:37,054
And he got his paints out
and he painted some of the houses.

47
01:48:37,258 --> 01:48:39,897
He had great fun.
You couldn't get him out.

48
01:48:40,178 --> 01:48:43,932
We built it at such a small scale,
<i>24</i>th scale...

49
01:48:44,098 --> 01:48:48,569
...because originally this miniature
was only intended for a wide shot...

50
01:48:48,778 --> 01:48:52,657
...from the end of the valley,
looking down on the miniature.

51
01:48:52,898 --> 01:48:57,733
But what unfolded in the coming months
was that Peter envisioned shots...

52
01:48:57,898 --> 01:49:01,368
...where the miniature would be
more involving and utilized...

53
01:49:01,578 --> 01:49:04,331
...in the back of shot
to a greater degree.

54
01:49:04,498 --> 01:49:08,730
To that end, the camera got closer
and closer.

55
01:49:08,938 --> 01:49:11,975
Fortunately Mary Machlachlan
and John Baster...

56
01:49:12,138 --> 01:49:16,177
...had gone to a great deal of trouble,
even for the wide shot...

57
01:49:16,338 --> 01:49:21,776
...to get the detail that is now able
to stand up in close-up in the film.

58
01:49:21,938 --> 01:49:26,170
Chuck Schumann, who shot that,
did a brilliant job of working out...

59
01:49:26,338 --> 01:49:31,458
...matching the lighting of the
miniature to the live action lighting.

60
01:49:31,658 --> 01:49:36,778
And also, in many cases, the moves
had to be elaborately massaged to fit.

61
01:49:36,938 --> 01:49:40,169
ln many cases, there were
several layers of miniature...

62
01:49:40,378 --> 01:49:44,212
...stretching back in depth,
and they all had to be shot...

63
01:49:44,378 --> 01:49:48,053
...in different positions
and at different speeds.

64
01:49:52,138 --> 01:49:57,053
We very much wanted Lothlórien to feel
like this ethereal, Elven home...

65
01:49:57,218 --> 01:50:00,176
...up in the treetops
of these huge mallorns.

66
01:50:00,338 --> 01:50:03,057
That twinkling amongst the branches...

67
01:50:03,258 --> 01:50:08,048
...were these beautiful, almost dewdrop
spots of light...

68
01:50:08,298 --> 01:50:13,497
...that the whole place felt like it
was enriched with music and culture...

69
01:50:13,698 --> 01:50:17,896
...that this was the highest level
of cultural sophistication.

70
01:50:18,098 --> 01:50:21,135
lt has a very art nouveau feeling.

71
01:50:21,418 --> 01:50:25,730
l remember something Peter was
stressing that he wanted was...

72
01:50:25,898 --> 01:50:29,732
...the buildings should be like
flowers with dripping tendrils.

73
01:50:29,938 --> 01:50:34,693
Alan's drawing is just a vision
of this forest...

74
01:50:34,858 --> 01:50:40,330
...with 1 00s of houses in it,
and that's what we had to build.

75
01:50:40,538 --> 01:50:45,532
This was the most difficult miniature
that we built for <i>Lord of the Rings</i>.

76
01:50:46,138 --> 01:50:49,926
We built eight, <i>2</i>6-foot tall trees...

77
01:50:50,138 --> 01:50:55,735
...each one about five feet in
diameter, carved out of polystyrene...

78
01:50:55,898 --> 01:51:00,574
...with a huge steel structure inside
them, then skinned in urethane...

79
01:51:00,738 --> 01:51:03,775
...and carefully detailed
to look like bark.

80
01:51:03,938 --> 01:51:07,647
Each one had a huge spray
of branches...

81
01:51:07,818 --> 01:51:13,051
...twigs and leaves that created
the canopy of the top of the mallorns.

82
01:51:13,258 --> 01:51:18,810
We created a model, which was just a
canvas for the shooting crew to light.

83
01:51:19,338 --> 01:51:23,729
Then it went to the next level.
They bathed it in this beautiful...

84
01:51:23,898 --> 01:51:25,729
...ethereal quality.

85
01:51:25,978 --> 01:51:29,607
lt was shot in very heavy smoke
because it's a mysterious...

86
01:51:29,778 --> 01:51:31,973
...very environmental place.

87
01:51:32,178 --> 01:51:38,572
lt's built in the trees, Elven flats.
These art nouveau buildings...

88
01:51:38,978 --> 01:51:41,776
...suspended with walkways
between them...

89
01:51:41,978 --> 01:51:46,733
...and 1 00s and 1 00s of light bulbs,
1 00s and 1 00s of Christmas lights...

90
01:51:46,898 --> 01:51:50,368
...in the distance where you see
them as points of light.

91
01:51:50,578 --> 01:51:55,094
The whole goal here was to create
as much depth as possible.

92
01:51:55,258 --> 01:51:58,967
We only had eight trees
but it had to look like a forest.

93
01:51:59,138 --> 01:52:02,335
So we had to shoot them,
change their positions...

94
01:52:02,498 --> 01:52:05,331
...shoot them again,
change their positions again...

95
01:52:05,498 --> 01:52:07,966
...and then stack them up
so you have...

96
01:52:08,138 --> 01:52:12,177
...eight times three, <i>24</i> trees,
instead of eight.

97
01:52:12,378 --> 01:52:16,166
This is what you do
to try to tie things together.

98
01:52:16,338 --> 01:52:19,967
Once you're about <i>2</i>0 feet up,
you're into the miniature...

99
01:52:20,138 --> 01:52:23,210
...and you continue up
where it disappears into smoke.
