Costume Illustrations from 'Catching Fire'

 

Frocktalk recently spoke with Phillip Boutte, a costume illustrator who worked with costume designer Trish Summerville on The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. Boutte took Summerville's costume designs and used a hybrid of different mediums (hand drawing, photoshop, Corel painter and ZBrush) to make a rendering of the costume designs:

I can take a fitting photo of something and make it look the way it’s supposed to look.  Through photo manipulation and painting, I’ll do my sketch in the computer – I’ll directly sketch into the computer instead of using a pencil – and then I’ll start to fill in actors’ faces, block in big shapes, block in a basic silhouette and start to draw, based on the specifications of what the designer has given me.  From that point, you can make things look a lot more real.

Boutte didn't give us any new information about Catching Fire, but he did provide a look at some of the costumes. And they are all labeled by scene so we can see how they correspond to the Catching Fire movie stills and screencaps from the trailer.  You can read the full article HERE.

Jennifer Lawrence Makes People's 2013 Most Beautiful List

People Magazine has a sneak peek at their 2013 Most Beautiful Women issue and - no surprise to us - Jennifer Lawrence is one of this year's Most Beautiful Women. 

From People:

Of all the things everyone's come to love about the Oscar winner, one trait that tops the list is her healthy body image. When talking to Elle about her near-nude role in X-Men: First Class, the 22-year-old said, "I knew that if I was going to be naked in front of the world, I wanted to look like a woman and not a prepubescent 13-year-old boy. I'm so sick of people thinking that's what [women are] supposed to look like."

VIDEO: Elizabeth Banks on 'Catching Fire' - It's an Upgrade

While Elizabeth Banks was at Cinema Con, she played a little poker and talked with Extra about Catching Fire. Elizabeth says Catching Fire is an upgrade!

It's amazing. It's almost like an upgrade. You really get to see the Capitol, the victory tour, the districts. It's world building in a bigger way. You really get to expand on it, it's not just district 12 and the games but all the districts, and the Capitol, and the hunger games. There's a LOT piled in this movie. 

Elizabeth's segment is at the 2:06 mark:

Jennifer and producer Harvey Weintstein

Jennifer took the stage with Silver Linings Playbook producer and Weinstein Company head Harvey Weinstein to honor Bill Clinton. While on stage, Jen referenced her Academy Award fall and then promptly flubbed Bill Clinton's name. She may be the only person in the world who can get away with botching a former President's name. We love you, Jen!
