I was a liaison between LEI and WetaFX to help facilitate the workflow between our two companies.  After a few months the 1st delivery from LEI to Weta was made and I returned back to New Zealand.  Upon my return it was myself and just a very small handful of artists working on the film for the next 2-3 years.  Somehow I found myself on the stunteam and ended up being in the film!  Immediately after my short time being a stuntee, I was given a chance to supervise\/lead a team Motion Capture Animators (Motion Editors) and spear head most of the hand-to-hand combat sequences on top of many others.  I&#8217;ve never given so much to a film in my entire career than this film. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow me on Twitter:  @davepreciado<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A 5 year journey has finally come to an end<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":true,"template":"","format":"video","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[135,211],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4322","post","type-post","status-publish","format-video","hentry","category-brazilian-jiu-jitsu","category-work","post_format-post-format-video"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.davepreciado.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4322","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.davepreciado.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.davepreciado.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davepreciado.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davepreciado.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4322"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.davepreciado.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4322\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4326,"href":"https:\/\/www.davepreciado.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4322\/revisions\/4326"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.davepreciado.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4322"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davepreciado.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4322"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davepreciado.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4322"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
