He mentioned it would be open to the public and for those who miss it, it will be broadcast on TV
I did a bit more investigation and found out all I could about what WETA is doing in Christchurch.
It is to do with business development and innovation. And will include a public forum entitled “Lord of the Rings – the Innovation Story”. The following is a summary of when and where this takes place.
