    A full week of work comes together as we go on set to shoot the short film! Half the team heads to Weta Workshop for early morning creature makeup, while the production crew and Adam go on location to begin filming. There's lot of problem-solving in the moment to get all of our shots, and both Peter Jackson and Richard Taylor visit the set to lend some advice.

    thanks Adam and your team....i was just browsing part 1 never thinking i was going to watch all of it.....4 hrs later ive just watched all of it....thats how good this series was...those guys at weta kno there craft...they seem so laid back and creative using simple methods like a rock to age leather...just bad ass geniuses....shane was awsome and everyone involved....then to top it off you have richard and peter just pop in giving advice....gold... Richards obviously hands on leading from the front, and peters more like giving some tips but not taking over the show kinda thing........probably best 4 hours ive had on youtube in a while. i have subscribed because of this.

    I've pretty much been gushing about some of these videos from people with professional production backgrounds, but... I can start to see the value of premium stuff. I guess I don't wanna do premium, more than anybody else does. It sort of seems like the antithesis to UA-cam as a concept. Why have a UA-cam at all if it's premium? May as well be Prime or Netflix. Reach, probably. But, at the same time, this stuff is pretty cool. I think it's top of the line for videos about how film production works. Something to think about. Real deal. There you go, from dude somewhere in the USA. Hey, and what else - this is a true-to-form maker's project. Making stuff.
