1. Probably the biggest concern about the orcs in Two Towers was how they evolve from faceless creatures to a full fledged society. Do you find their transition disconcerting, given how they were represented in Fellowship? Is this a convincing society, or is it over-brutalized?
I remember Lurtz talking in Fellowship, so I assumed orcs would be speaking from the beginning. This was just the first time we were allowed to see orcs/uruk-hai interact among themselves.
And I think you have to make their "culture" seem brutal. They are the villains after all.
2. As an addition to the prior question, the humans never seem to hear the orcs speak. Does this give the impression that only Hobbits can understand the creatures? Was this deliberate?
This never even occurred to me. Couldn't the Fellowship hear Lurtz shouting out orders? How about Gothmog at Minas Tirith?
3. Look at the orcs around the ones in focus. How are orcs represented as a race and do you think the different breeds of orc here help establish a wide range of visual features that determine an orc or Uruk-hai? Does this assist their appearance in Return of the King?
I was able to tell the difference. Uruk-Hai are portrayed as larger, bulkier, and more like alpha-males.
4. I chose shots somewhat at movement so that we may observe the versatility of the make-up at work here. Does it look convincing? What are the orcish visual traits here and what would you do to improve them and bring them closer to your imagination?
Looks amazing. WETA did a great job with the makeup for all three films. The diversity made it even more believable.
Bonus Question: Which orc here is voiced by Andy Serkis?
I think it's the middle one. If my memory serves me correctly.
The Grey Pilgrim, they once called me. Three hundred lives of men I walked this earth, and now I have no time...
