Australia’s Channel 9 visited the set of The Voyage of the Dawn Treader and someone posted the video of the news report. They write:
A report from Channel 9’s Gold Coast News on the filming of the latest “Narnia” film underway at Warner’s Studios in Australia.
Of course.. it took a politician, in this case, Queensland Premier Anna Bligh to bring the TV News Crews in but they should’ve come anyway as this is a major production with some amazing and expensive sets.
Channel 10 News reported that the filiming was not due to begin until next month but I can assure you the shoot has been underway for a week now. Not sure where ten got their facts. 9’s report was more accurate.
Clean cut and talented Reporter, Brendan Hockings does a good job on this.
This is a multi million dollar project generating alot of work on the coast for locals and some imported crew and cast.
So far.. I can report they are actually ahead of schedule and powering through the production with few hiccups.. thanks in part to the latest bout of fine and sunny weather on the GC.
Even the restored set of the Ship being constructed at the Spit nearby is taking shape and may come into focus as early as Monday the 10th of August.. so keep an eye out if you are fishing or surfing there !!
