B2MeM18 Day 3
And the music and the echo of the music went out into the Void, and it was not void. Never since have the Ainur made any music like to this music, though it has been said that a greater still shall be made before Ilúvatar by the choirs of the Ainur and the Children of Ilúvatar after the end of days. (The Silmarillion, “Ainulindale”)
The Ainur aren't the only ones who can create something amazing...
We met Daniel Reeve, who did all the calligraphy and cartography we can see on the movies (and a lot things we never got to see). He gave us a presentation, and I can tell you, the amount of work he did for the movies is insane. He demonstrated his calligraphy skills and then it was comission time! What I had him write for me was the best thing I got from the trip. After the meeting was over it was the first and only time I called my mom lol I was so excited I needed to share it with someone, I didn't care it was almost 3am back home :P
The original draft for Bilbo's contract vs the end result. Peter Jackson wanted it to be longer and longer each time. It takes about a week to write one, if I remember correctly.
Writing on one of his paintings. You can see Bilbo's book there :O
The original Bilbo portrait !!!
Here he's working on my request. The open book over there was writen for the movie with parts of stories taken from the Silmarillion. It's open on the entry about Túrin Turambar, because I had told him how much I loved that story, among all of Tolkien's work, so he went and looked for that part. Not only is he super talented, he was also a really nice guy.
