SG1 - Stargate Planet: Bill Corcoran (Director) Interview:

A brief excerpt:

Interview with Bill Corcoran

Stargate-Planet, April 2008


Bill Corcoran directed the Stargate episodes "Seth" and "One false step". We're grateful that he took some time off his busy schedule to answer a few career related questions for our German website visitors.

**snippage**

S-P.de: "One False Step" is one of our favourite episodes, especially because of the interactions of the main characters (i.e. Jack and Daniel arguing on that planet). Another favourite scene is the one where Daniel is explaining to the Aliens that they are trying to find the UAV. Which influence could you as the director take on various scenes or was everything written in the script?

BC: I loved doing One False Step, as the "aliens" had no real language I hired actors experienced in mime to develop their own communication and we improved quite a bit with the actors to see the development of trust and language between the two worlds. Michael Shanks was great with accessing the situation and really responsible for making the scene in the shelter come alive. It had great humanity and humour thanks to everyone's willingness to suspend disbelief and work together. I loved the primitive stick drawings he did in the sand. The writers and producers were very collaborative in allowing the actors and myself and the rest of the creative team, wardrobe, makeup, etc come up with a concept and make it work. The production design team at SG1 was very strong and always surprised one with their invention.

SGA - FADPOV: Exclusive Interview: FADPOV Talks With Ryan Robbins - Part 1:

(NOTE: Ryan Robbins has portrays the Genii, Ladon Radim, on Stargate Atlantis.]

(Please follow the link for the complete interview.)

Exclusive Interview: FADPOV Talks With Ryan Robbins



When FADPOV had the chance to chat with actor Ryan Robbins a little while ago, we were more than thrilled to spend a slightly overcast afternoon in North Vancouver with this iconic star. Two hours later and Ryan's charm and wit has completely won us over as he regales us with fun stories from various sets, and what it’s been like to bring characters to life in favourite shows like Battlestar Galactica, Stargate: Atlantis, The Guard, Sanctuary, and so many others.

It certainly also doesn’t hurt that Ryan’s animated tales are shared over luscious organic coffee as we get sneaky peeks at the tattoo of his daughter’s name over his shoulders, all the while wondering how we should raise the fact that we think he looks the spitting image of an adorable Viggo Mortensen…

As we got to spend so much time with Ryan, we’ve decided to break this interview into two parts so you don’t miss out on anything. We certainly hope you enjoy this little insight into Ryan’s life as much as we enjoyed talking with him!!

**snippage**

FADPOV: We spoke with Dan Payne recently, and he was in the movie Smile Of April with you recently, wasn’t he? Being based here in Vancouver, do find you come across all the same people when you arrive on movie and tv sets?

Ryan: No, not really, but depending on the community you’re in. The girls who made Smile Of April, Sabrina and Jessica, they’re from France, and I met them on an unrelated movie called Taming Tammy that they were working on. They wanted to go to film school, but it was expensive so they just came here and started working in film to get the experience they needed. They’re big sci fi fans, by the way. And they’re so ambitious and tenacious and they’re very, very talented people.

Anyway, I met them on Taming Tammy and it turns out that they knew who I was and they’re big Stargate fans. They started talking and they said to somebody I knew on the show, “Oh we’re doing this short film and we’d really like Ryan to be in it, but we don’t want to ask him because he won’t do it.” So somebody asked me on their behalf and when I read the script I was happy to do it.

And so we did this short film and from there we formed a relationship. They’d gotten to know a lot of us from being fans of the shows we’ve been on and meeting people at events. And once they realized is all you have to do is ask, they figured out we’re not mean people. We’re going to look at it and if we can do it, if we like it, we’ll do it. If we can’t, then it’s no big deal, but it’s worth asking, right?
