The duration of the key battle in The Hobbit 3 has been named
The final battle in The Hobbit 3: The Battle of the Five Armies will last 45 minutes. Director Peter Jackson told Entertainment Weekly about this. According to him, preparing for the movieing of a key episode of the picture required the same efforts as organizing a real battle. “We had a lot of logistics calculations and research. We have orcs, humans, gnomes and elves, and they all have different cultures, weapons, equipment, combat tactics and so on,” said Jackson. In addition, a detailed study of the landscape and environment was required. "So, we have an army of 10 thousand orcs. How much space will this number of creatures occupy? Should they occupy the entire valley, or just a tiny part of it? Only then can we start preparing the diagrams and illustrations," he added. Jackson also noted that shooting large-scale battles requires accurate calculation of the duration of scenes, since too long shots without the participation of the main characters contribute to the loss of attention from the audience. Recall that the audience will be able to appreciate the efforts of the director and his team in mid-December 2014, when the final part of The Hobbit trilogy will be released worldwide.
