A few Prometheus-related goodies for San Diego Comic-Con

While Fox are hinting at something big at this month’s San Diego Comic-Con, until anything is confirmed a few events have been detailed which will keep us Prometheus fans happy.

There will be a few panel events, with various Prometheus crew, discussing a range of topics, including creature design with Neville Page, Blu-Ray with Ridley Scott’s regular Blu-Ray/DVD producer Charles de Lauzirika and the science of science fiction with Jon Spaihts

According to the Comic-Con website:

4:00-5:00 Character Design in Entertainment: From Script to Sculpt — When it comes to behind-the-scenes special features and “The Art of Making…” reference books for movies, gaming, and entertainment, oftentimes we only get a brief glimpse of what went into the design of a production. Leading creature and concept designer Neville Page (Avatar, Star Trek, Tron, Super 8, and most recently Prometheus) goes in-depth about the specificity of character development, from script interpretation to full design execution, referencing select work from some of the spectacular films he has worked on. You will not only see the final resolve, but the roughest of sketches. A thorough Q&A will be a big part of the presentation. Room 7AB

5:00-6:00 Blu-ray Producers 2012 — Bill Hunt, Todd Doogan, and Dr. Adam Jahnke of The Digital Bits.com and Geek Monthly discuss the process of making great Blu-ray special editions with producers Charles de Lauzirika (Prometheus, The Amazing Spider-Man), Cliff Stephenson (The Hunger Games, The Expendables 2), and Robert Meyer Burnett (Star Trek: The Next Generation-Seasons One and Two), as well as Warner Home Video’s senior VP of theatrical catalog marketing George Feltenstein. Audience participation is encouraged. Room 5AB

6:00-7:00 The Science of Science Fiction: Canon Fodder — Aliens, robots, wormholes, superheroes…there’s more than a little science in all of these, but how can that science be kept straight and consistent across multiple movies and seasons of TV shows? Panelists Jon Spaihts (writer, Prometheus), Jane Espenson (producer/writer, Battlestar Galactica, Caprica), Zack Stentz and Ashley Miller (writers, Thor, X-Men: First Class), Jaime Paglia (producer/writer, Eureka), and Dr. Kevin Grazier (science advisor, Battlestar Galactica, Defiance), talk about the ups and downs of respecting the science in ongoing science fiction TV and movie series. Moderated by Dr. Phil Plait (writer/host, Phil Plait’s Bad Universe, Discover magazine’s Bad Astronomy blog), and courtesy of The Science and Entertainment Exchange, a program of the National Academy of Sciences.

The Prometheus viral campaign continues! Full Blu-ray & DVD details at San Diego Comic-Con?

With the release of Prometheus, a new viral site appeared, ready and waiting to promote the movie’s home video release (read more here).

Now that site has been updated. It appears that the five hexagons on the left of the page each represent a month to go until the October date referenced (in American format) in the site’s name.

Now another has become active, and takes you to the Careers page at the Project Prometheus site.

There you will find this corporate ‘Employee Testimonial’ video from Jamie Rossi.

As you can see from the message, and this URL, at the end of the video, Weyland will be recruiting at July’s San Diego Comic-Con.

I think it’s probably safe to assume that we’ll get some official details of the movie’s home video release, including the length of any extended cut, extra features and so on. Stay tuned for more info!
