382 – We Are Those Fans: a Chat with Wētā Workshop
The Lord of the Mark returns for a special episode to help get Season 10 of The Prancing Pony Podcast underway, as we chat with Dan Falconer and Leonard Ellis from Wētā Workshop! From Falconer’s early days on the first Peter Jackson films to Ellis’ upcoming sculpt of Cirith Ungol, our conversation centers on all things Middle-earth. We learn the real meaning of the acronym CAD, find that even the people who make these things don’t have room on their shelves for all of them, and officially put a visit to Wētā Workshop on our bucket lists!
