Note from Mickey: In a re-occuring role, maybe? Pretty pwease with pizza on top?

She's on my list of folks I'd like to use eventually if we find a good role for her.  But she's in Vancouver, not Toronto, and she works a lot so the stars would have to align just right.

--- Quote from: Rhea on January 29, 2007, 05:14:10 AM ---Robert, when I was looking at the gallery of pictures over at SciFi, there was a picture of Bob holding Harry's hockey stick. After the Box O'Doom, I sure hope that Bob won't be the giver of all things magic to Harry, because Harry made his own magical stuff in the books. Is Bob going to endow the hockey stick with some sort of magic for Harry?

Bob holding the hockey stick?  Not possible.  Harry made it himself and Bob can't touch stuff anyway.  Must be a posed pic or something.

Yeah, I was wondering about that too and was going to ask you how coporeal is Bob.

Also, we know Melissa and Ms. Timmons/Skin walker could see Bob, but can normal everyday people see him (ie: Murphy)?  He went to his skull before she entered the room in TBI.

--- End quote ---

Everyone can see Bob.  And Bob can't touch anything.

--- End quote ---
So could you explainy how Bob appears to be holding the staff in the pefore mentioned shot, sil vous plait?

trboturtle:
Robert, I brought this up before, but it was lost in the avalnche of posts. Could you comment on the basics of the series budget? That has to be a huge part of the changes we've seen bring the DF to TV. That would explain why Harry isn't slinging spells every five minutes, why Bob is ghost instead of skull spirit, and why jeep instead of beetle. I mean, if you were to do Storm Front as a TV novel and be 100% faithful to the novel, how much would something like that cost?

Thank you,

Craig

Highlander_II:
I'd like to know if the 'steady cam' gets more 'steady' in later episodes, b/c it was rather wobbly in these first two.  I understand a little bit of sway, unless more is intentional (ala Joss Whedon in "The Body" from BtVS), but this was like the cameraman was standing on the deck of a ship on less-than-calm water.  It was almost distracting.

Mickey Finn:
That's not a steadycam, that's just handheld. ;)
Which is often used for effect...but it's also cheaper, because steadycams cost more...not just the equipment, but the operators, plus there are rules about how long they can be used in a shoot (the gyroscopes and weight have fun with your back), so that affects shooting schedule.
