Making medieval magic at Weta

5/09/07, 5:27 pm EST - Xoanon

A knight in shining armour, a mythical creature and a medieval court? It all sounds a bit twee for an animated children's series in 2007. But what if the knight was a feisty 12-year-old girl, the creature was a clumsy dragon and their living quarters were designed by the team who gave us Gollum in Lord of the Rings? Weta Workshop's first TV series, Jane and the Dragon, premieres in New Zealand on Saturday. It is hoped the early evening timeslot will entice a family audience to what is being heralded as a massive achievement for the Oscar-winning company. [More]

GSU to transform into Narnia for a day

4/25/07, 7:49 pm EST - Xoanon

The period is the 1940s. The location is war-torn England. And the story involves four children who climb through a magic wardrobe into a strange and wondrous land called Narnia that is ruled by the cold-hearted White Witch, who makes the winter last year-round. Although the children (Edmund, Lucy, Peter and Susan) seem unlikely saviors, they fulfill an ancient prophecy by defeating the witch, restoring sunshine and peace to spellbound Narnia and returning the great Lion King Aslan to his throne.
