Before
long that commitment grew into a four year project. During that
time he found himself involved in making film history by acting
the part of a CGI character.
Andy's
character Gollum pushed back the boundaries and with his human feel
Gollum became more than a simple celebration of the technology,
he became a tangible, living, breathing entity.
You
can listen to Andy talking to ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Oxford's Tim Bearder about the
incredible success of the films. They explore the techniques Peter
Jackson and the team used to bring Gollum to life and he even got
a quick chat with the creature himself.
