Have you made any changes to the vampire makeup you saw in the first movie?
Weitz: There's more consistency between shots, if I were to be just coldblooded about it.The Volturi have a slightly different look, because they're a different breed of vampire altogether. The diamond skin we're remaking. It's gonna be groovy.

How many versions of the wolf did you have, and cg wise, how long did that take to come up with?
Weitz: Well, we knew very quickly that we wanted it to look like a wolf, just a very, very big one. Once you've made that crucial decision you don't have to spend much time on look with R&D [Research and Development] and the concept and the renderings you usually have to do with monsters and those type of things. Getting very tedious details stuff like fur, the muscles, the fat over the muscles, the way the light is with the fur, that stuff takes months. We have a huge advantage in that it's Phil Tippet's studios. Phil Tippett is one of the greatest visual effects artists in the world.
