A line from the film stuck in De Micco's head: "Does a monkey know he's sitting on top of a rocket that might explode?" It began with a viewing of THE RIGHT STUFF, Philip Kaufman's classic 1983 movie, based on Tom Wolfe's book of the same name, that looked at the original Mercury space program. While it's not quite as lengthy a journey as his film's simian heroes take, SPACE CHIMPS writer/director Kirk De Micco's odyssey in turning his 2002 concept into a finished work is an adventure in its own right.

I love that sort of spontaneity of ideas but with visual effects we don't respond as quickly to those kinds of changes. He would say let's do this and that, which is great. Pete Berg thinks straight off the top of his head as different ideas would pop up. there weren't any storyboards for this film and it was all done as animatics. It wasn't a crazy amount of stuff but just a few choice sequences that had some cool moments visually. It's funny because when I first read the script it wasn't a visual effects gore-fest. Hahn recalls how they worked to bring Peter Berg's vision of an atypical hero story to life: "I remember from the very beginning you could tell it's not the typical, classic superhero film, where he's got a really nice outfit or he battles a true super-villain. Working under the designs of the legendary John Dykstra, Imageworks took on the bulk of the vfx creation for this film which looks at what happens when the good guy has a lot of "issues" to work through. How do you make a larger-than-life superhero come across as less than super on the big screen? It sounds easy unless you have the ever charming, international phenom Will Smith starring as the troubled "hero." And how do you make the biggest box office draw in the world look like the kind of hero no one wants to be saved by? That was the challenge for Digital Effects Supervisor Ken Hahn and Visual Effects Supervisor Carey Villegas of Sony Pictures Imageworks on director Peter Berg's new action-comedy.
