T2: Reprogramming The Terminator

18 April 2018

CLIENT:
StudioCanal

BRIEF:
To produce a one hour retrospective documentary about the making of James Cameron’s Terminator 2 to accompany the 4K Blu-ray release.

WHAT WE DID:

Premier worked closely with James Cameron’s company Lightstorm to create the ultimate celebration of this sci-fi classic. We began the process by tracking down as many of the cast and crew as possible. We travelled to the US and conducted a series of in-depth interviews - including Arnold Schwarzengger.

Cameron opened up his archives and allowed us access to never before seen photographs and behind the scenes footage. We shot all the interviews green screen and then created bespoke backgrounds to keep the viewer inside the futuristic world of Terminator.

Following the StudioCanal release the documentary was picked up by Lionsgate who featured it on the US release of the title too.
