Reservoir Dogs captured at side LA
Rob King – side’s man in
Los Angeles – swung into action this year to facilitate the casting, recording and direction for the prestigious Eidos title Reservoir Dogs.
The sessions, all of which took place in LA, involved video facial capture for the cutscenes and also the casting of new actors to voice those iconic lead characters without simply mimicking their big-screen counterparts – no mean feat. There was one major exception to that rule – original cast member Michael Madsen, who we were delighted to welcome back to reprise his original role.
Well, there have to be some advantages to living near Hollywood… Rob certainly didn’t seem to mind being stuck in the middle and happily emerged with his personal aural equipment fully intact.
