Screen Hub: Weir makes way back to Aust
My latest story for Screen Hub:
Peter Weir makes his way back to Australia for post
It has been confirmed that Australian director Peter Weir will complete his next film The Way Back in New South Wales through a substantial post-production and digital visual effects component.
EFilm and Stage One Sound will conduct the sound mix and the DI (digital intermediate), having had their senior colorist Olivier Fontenay working alongside DOP Russell Boyd on the shoot in Bulgaria.
Rising Sun Pictures is the sole provider of the film’s 81 visual effects shots. It was through this clustering of work that the $5m threshold for the 15% PDV rebate was triggered.
