I'm Wes Ball, director of 'Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes'. This is a little scene early in the movie after our trio of monkeys here, Noa, Soona and Anaya, have just had a little adventure and are heading to their village, where we meet life. of the Eagle Clan and where Noa and his family live, this small isolated existence. And we get to see how the monkeys live in this world with their eagles. And how this ritual of collecting their egg, which they will raise as companions, is part of the way the Eagle Clan works in their culture. And the goal was really just to set up a world that was awesome, that would ultimately change forever when the turn of events results in Noa's village being attacked for the most part. Everything you see here was actually shot with the actors. We shoot it twice, we shoot it once with the actors and all their little performance things and the camera movements and stuff. So we're making a normal movie. It just so happens that these guys are wearing these weird suits, along with the cameras and the dots on their faces that capture all the performances. And then I have to go in and duplicate those photos again without the monkeys, and that's what I choose to do. Whatever representation I choose is now dropped into the scene itself. So this isn't something where we animate the characters afterwards. We're actually on location and they're there in their digital costumes, essentially reenacting everything you see on camera, except for background action, for example. There is a group of monkeys in the background playing what we called Monkey Ball. , and we just all did that on stage. So that's the beauty of the power of this process: we can populate this entire scene with hundreds of monkeys. But we only needed a handful of monkeys on set. This is Dar, Noa's mother, a fantastic character, played by Sara Wiseman, who did a great job. “I knew you would climb well.” “He is waiting.” And this character of Noa here, you start to see the relationship that he has with his father, which is an interesting kind of relationship that I think a lot of people can relate to. They don't really know how to communicate with each other, but there is clearly still love there. It's an interesting process where I can take all these different little elements and stack them all on top of each other and stack them into this – what you see here is the end result, this little idyllic community.
