³ ³
³ Subtitles: Russian, Czech, Hungarian, Polish, Greek, Portuguese ³
³ ³
³ Featurette: "e;Australia: The People, the History, the Location"e; (HD, 7 ³
³ minutes) – The worst extra in the bunch, this drab bit of promotional ³
³ drivel features catatonic narration and provides the barest overview of ³
³ the production. Some archival footage links scenes from the film to actual ³
³ locations, and there's a brief nod to the plight of indigenous, mixed-race ³
³ children, but most of this draggy piece features sweeping shots of the ³
³ Australian landscape, glimpses of jovial actors gallivanting on horseback, ³
³ and Kidman talking about giving back to her native country. Yuck. ³
³ Featurette: "e;Photography"e; (HD, 5 minutes) – The film's official still ³
³ photographer, James Fisher, displays some of his striking on-set images, ³
³ while guest photographers Douglas Kirkland and Annie Leibovitz talk about ³
³ their experiences on location and in the studio. ³
³ Featurette: "e;Production Design"e; (HD, 5 minutes) – Sketches, models, ³
³ computer images, and blueprints help us get a grasp on set design, ³
³ courtesy of production designer Catherine Martin, who is also Luhrmann's ³
³ wife. ³
³ Featurette: "e;Costume Design"e; (HD, 7 minutes) – Martin (busy lady) is also ³
³ the film's costume designer, and she discusses creating and culling more ³
³ than 1,800 costumes for principals and extras, as well as the body ³
³ decorations used on indigenous cast members. ³
³ Featurette: "e;Locations"e; (HD, 6 minutes) – A look at how the location team ³
³ discovered the film's "e;epic expanses"e; in the wild Australian outback, and ³
³ made the areas suitable for shooting. ³
³ Featurette: "e;Cinematography"e; (HD, 7 minutes) – Mandy Walker, director of ³
³ photography, talks about her extensive prep process and close ³
³ collaboration with Luhrmann. We also learn about the difficulties of ³
³ seamlessly matching location shots with blue-screen studio work. ³
³ Featurette: "e;Sound"e; (HD, 11 minutes) – The five elements of movie audio – ³
³ dialogue, music, sound effects, foley, and atmospherics – are examined in ³
³ this interesting featurette that also provides an inside look at looping. ³
³ Featurette: "e;Editing"e; (HD, 11 minutes) – A "e;birthing process"e; is how ³
³ Luhrmann defines editing, and his dedicated team addresses the challenge ³
³ of sorting through a whopping two-and-a-half million feet of film and ³
³ piecing it into a flowing, visually pleasing finished product. Luhrmann ³
³ also discusses editing's progression from a tactile, film-based process ³
³ through its electronic stage to its present digital status. A brief look ³
³ at editing visual effects is also included in this fascinating piece. ³
³ Featurette: "e;Music"e; (HD, 10 minutes) – This featurette examines the ³
³ transformative power of music, and how it shapes our emotions and enhances ³
³ our cinematic journey. Composer David Hirschfelder calls film music "e;quite ³
³ devious"e; in that regard, and we're shown how 'Australia' is a melting pot ³
³ of various forms, from bush music and Filipino influences to Big Band ³
³ standards and the pop stylings of Elton John. ³
³ Featurette: "e;Visual Effects"e; (HD, 9 minutes) – Technical personnel explain ³
³ how safety, cost, and feasibility determine whether visual effects will be ³
³ used for a certain scene, and discuss the complex process of merging ³
³ studio and location work in a single shot. According to the staff, ³
³ Luhrmann employed the "e;Lean and Lucas approach"e; on 'Australia,' combining ³
³ the beauty of actual locations á la David Lean with the control of ³
³ soundstage settings that George Lucas favored, and before-and-after clips ³
³ show the striking enhancements the visual effects team was able to ³
³ produce. ³
³ Deleted Scenes (HD, 3 minutes) – Just two scenes are included, and only ³
³ one contains any substance. Neither adds much to the film, but they're ³
³ certainly worth a peek. ³
