The producers of 'The Hobbit' take the welfare of all animals very seriously and have always pursued the highest standard of care for animals in their charge.

From Peter Jackson

Over 55% of all shots using animals in 'The Hobbit' are in fact computer generated; this includes horses, ponies, rabbits, hedgehogs, birds, deer, elk, mice, wild boars and wolves.

From Peter Jackson

Once the film is out and a lot of people are seeing it, it becomes almost owned by the cinemagoers of the world.

From Peter Jackson

The first day I start shooting, I start having a recurring nightmare that every single night that I am lying in bed, and there is a film crew surrounding the bed, waiting for me to tell them what to do, and I don't quite know what movie I am supposed to be making.

From Peter Jackson

Obviously, with a CGI character, you're building a character in much the same way as a real creature is built. You build the bones, the skeletons, the muscles. You put layers of fat on. You put a layer of skin on which has to have a translucency, depending on what the character is.

From Peter Jackson

Anything you can imagine, you can put on film.

From Peter Jackson

I think it's important that filmmakers look at the technology and figure out how to make the theatrical experience a little more exciting.

From Peter Jackson

I'm not going to head off and do a Marvel film. So if I don't do a Marvel film, I don't have any other choice - I've got to go make a small New Zealand movie!

From Peter Jackson

I can't take responsibility for everyone's employment.
