The making of Peter Jacksonās The Lord of the Rings trilogy is full of amazing stories. Going behind the scenes of LOTR in the LOTR DVD appendices is like exploring Smaugās hoarde of treasure. For me, one of the best LOTR behind the scenes stories is that of Edoras ā the capital of Rohan ā a massive set that was built for real.
Edoras was built on Mount Sunday in the South Island of New Zealand over a gruelling eleven months. It was one of the most remote and difficult LOTR locations, but also one of the favourite of the cast and crew. This LOTR video essay explores how they built Edoras, and more importantly why building it in this location was so important to properly translating Tolkienās vision on film.
