Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke remembers the exact moment she decided to say no to New Moon.
“I was in Paris with Rob [Pattinson] and Kristen [Stewart] at dinner and talking to them and it was like, ‘Is this really the schedule? Would we really be starting 10 and a half weeks from now?’ ” Hardwicke told me yesterday in Santa Monica at the launch event for her new book, Twilight: Director’s Notebook. “Yes, we would, for various reasons which I respect, but I really thought it would be better for somebody else, who hadn’t just been working every day for two years without a day off.”

Three Good Reasons:
1) New Moon is reported to start filming,
2) The Twilight DVD will be released on March 21st,
3) On March 17th, Little Brown & Company will be releasing Catherine Hardwicke’s book, “TWILIGHT: Director’s Notebook”
Hollywood Insider(EW) reported ,”The book will include inside secrets on casting, location scouting, and wardrobe — plus behind-the-scenes photos, personal notes about Hardwicke’s favorite scenes, and more. “With this book, I tried to show fans and future directors some of the process that the crew and I went through filming Twilight,” said Hardwicke.”
So mark your calendars!
Danke Angelica!
And since we’re in the subject of filmmaking – I’d like to mention about Maggie Parke. She’s from the US and doing her PhD @ Bangor University in Wales studying fantasy literature adaptations (the process of turning a book into a film, a video game etc). As she said on her blog, she’s basically getting a PhD in Twilight(!!!), Harry Potter, and The Lord of the Rings. She was on the set of Twilight last year and she’s been involved in a lot of events leading up to the movie’s release.
Here’s an excerpt from her blog:
“I like the point that Catherine makes in the video about one look that an actor gives another actor in the film can cover twenty-five pages of text from Stephenie Meyer. Because of this, they are able to add extra scenes and dialogue in order to develop the characters and keep us interested (i.e. not having five scenes in the Bio classroom; instead there may be three scenes there and an extra scene in a greenhouse for visual diversity). We don’t have twenty-five pages of text to get to know the workings of these character’s brains. Instead, we have time and observation. Much like how Edward can’t get into Bella’s head, we have to find other outlets to get to know these characters like extra scenes with them… because unlike the novels, we can’t get into Bella’s head either!”
So for all of you budding filmmakers out there or just awesome Twilight fans Check out her blog: Still wandering…A Film PhD Student’s Musings… A Twilight Blog and More…
