WETA-and-Lisa
Even if you haven’t heard of Weta Workshop before, you’ve probably heard of the movies they have worked on: Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, Mad Max, Avatar, and Godzilla to name a few, but their filmography includes dozens more.

Jake Downing from Weta visited the Stellar Travel office in Bellevue, Washington. He brought a few props to share, including a prosthetic dwarf arm and an orc mask from The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings.

Weta Workshop is an award-winning design studio and prop making facility. They can create anything from creature suits and makeup effects to custom vehicles and weapons. Their partner companies include Weta Digital (for computer-generated visual effects) and Park Road Post Production (for grading and sound effects).

If you’re a fan of Middle Earth, or if you’re just a movie buff who loves to go behind the scenes, you can visit Weta firsthand at their Wellington, New Zealand studios.

While the studios are open for tours 364 days a year, your Stellar Travel advisor can arrange an exclusive, VIP experience giving you private access to areas normally closed to the public. Options include a hands-on sculpting workshop with a Weta technician or the chance to record your own sound effects and take home your custom movie. You might even get to hold one of Weta’s five Oscars.

Contact your Stellar Travel advisor today to learn more.
