A cute little article about some of the people on the Red Carpet tour. You’ll see their faces and costumes on just about every pic of the party, the red carpet and general fan madness in Wellington. I’d like to give a big shout-out to all the people who have visited NZ for the premiere due to TORN and Red Carpet (amounts to the same thing, with most Red Carpet clients discovering the tours through TORN. Their costumes and enthusiasm added hugely to the atmosphere of the Premiere week in Wellington.
Here’s a few clips and vids of interviews from The Hobbit red carpet in Wellington that have popped up on Youtube so far.
First up, the NOWLive stream has now switched to a short, 60-second highlights loop of the red carpet event. Neat.
Next head to TVNZ where you can check out a bunch of red carpet highlights and interviews, including Peter Jackson’s speech in front of the Embassy Theatre.
Then check out these Youtube clips form the red carpet below!

This is a personal thrill for me but I feel also the responsibility to convey as much of the experience as possible to TORn readers and everybody who cannot come. It is 5 a.m. in Wellington on HOBBIT: An Unexpected Journey premiere day. (More photos after the red carpet so we don’t bog down the site.)Continue reading “TORn joins media frenzy leading up to ‘Hobbit’ world premiere”
