Hey All!
In celebration of the release of the new BluRay for the amazing movie OZ THE GREAT AND POWERFUL, I had the amazing opportunity to interview Joey King (“China Girl”), Scott Stokdyk (VFX Supervisor), and Michael Kimmel (Supervising Animator) & Carolyn Vail (Senior Animator) as they will be appearing in some amazing special features on the BluRay.
You will find China Girl And The Suspension Of Disbelief to be a very interesting feature to watch when you get your copy on June 11th! This expose uncloaks the several forms of movie magic employed to bring China Girl to life, from the initial artwork and character design, to the on-set puppeteering during filmmaking, and finally, through each stage of the visual-effects process; and includes an interview with the voice of China Girl, Joey King.
They had some very interesting things to share about the process for visual effects and how they brought the characters and world of Oz to life.

How neat to be able to interview such talented folks.
china doll actually sounds really interesting.
I love the bonus features and the behind the scenes looks on these DVD bundles, they almost interest me more than the actual movies. We’re so excited to watch this one as we missed it in theaters.

I can’t wait to see this one! My 3yo keeps asking to watch it whenever she sees a picture or commercial of it. I think she’s intrigued by the beautiful colors.
This was such an amazing film! I can not wait to add it to our DVD collection.
Great interviews! This sounds like a wonderful movie.
