'The most important thing Peter right now has to learn is that this whole concept of him as the avenger or him as the hero, he wears this red and blue outfit, with each criminal he brings to justice he's trying to pay down this debt of guilt he feels about the death of Uncle Ben.
He considers himself a hero and a sinless person versus these villains that he nabs. We felt it would be a great thing for him to learn a little less black and white view of life and that he's not above these people.' —Sam Raimi, on how the character of Peter Parker developed in this filmIn March 2004, with being released the coming June, had begun developing Spider-Man 3 for a release in summer 2007. By the release of Spider-Man 2, a release date for Spider-Man 3 had been set for May 2, 2007 before production on the sequel had begun. The date was later changed to May 4, 2007.
In January 2005, Sony Pictures completed a seven-figure deal with, who had penned Spider-Man 2, to script Spider-Man 3 with an option to script a fourth film.Immediately after Spider-Man 2 's release, wrote a treatment over two months, with Sam Raimi deciding to use the film to explore Peter learning that he is not a sinless vigilante, and that there also can be humanity in those he considers criminals. Was brought back as Raimi wanted to conclude his storyline.
Raimi felt that Harry would not follow his father's legacy, but be instead 'somewhere between.' Was introduced as an antagonist, as Raimi found him a visually fascinating character.
While Sandman is a petty criminal in the comics, the screenwriters created a background of the character being 's killer to increase Peter's guilt over his death and challenge his simplistic perception of the event. Overall, Raimi described the film as being about Peter, Mary Jane, Harry, and the Sandman, with Peter's journey being one of.Raimi wanted another villain, and was involved in negotiations to play the before the character was cut. Producer convinced Raimi to include Venom, a character whose perceived 'lack of humanity' had initially been criticized by Sam Raimi.
Venom's alter-ego, Eddie Brock, already had a minor role in the script. Arad felt the series had relied too much on Raimi's personal favorite Spider-Man villains, not characters that modern fans were actually interested in, so Raimi included Venom to please them, and even began to appreciate the character himself. The film's version of the character is an of Venom stories. Eddie Brock, Jr., the human part of Venom, serves as a mirror to Peter Parker, with both characters having similar jobs and romantic interests. Brock's actions as a journalist in Spider-Man 3 also represent contemporary themes of. The producers also suggested adding rival, filling in an 'other girl' type that Raimi already created. With so many additions, Sargent soon found his script so complex that he considered splitting it into two films, but abandoned the idea when he could not create a successful intermediate climax.
Filming Camera crews spent 2 weeks from November 5–18, 2005 to film sequences that would involve intense so could begin work on the shots early in the project. The same steps had been taken for Spider-Man 2 to begin producing visual effects early for sequences involving the villain.for Spider-Man 3 began on January 16, 2006 and wrapped in July 2006 after over 100 days of filming.
The team filmed in Los Angeles until May 19, 2006. In spring 2006, film Peter Martorano brought camera crews to due to the offering production space at the city's at no cost. In Cleveland, they shot the battle between Spider-Man and Sandman in the armored car. Afterwards, the team moved to Manhattan, where filming took place at various locations, including, from May 26, 2006 until July 1, 2006. Shooting placed a strain on Raimi, who often had to move between several units to complete the picture. Shooting was also difficult for cinematographer Bill Pope, as the symbiote Spider-Man, Venom, and the New Goblin were costumed in black during taking place at night.After August, were conducted as Raimi sought to film more action scenes.
The film then wrapped in October, although additional shots were taken to finalize the production a month later. In early 2007, there were further regarding the resolution of Sandman's story, amounting to four different versions. Visual effects. Concept art of the suit, which possesses a webbing motif, unlike the comics, in order to show the symbiote's control and represent the character as a twisted to Spider-Man.In addition to the innovative visual effects for the film, Stokdyk created a miniature of a skyscraper section at 1:16 scale with Studios's and David Sanger. Stokdyk chose to design the miniature instead of using so damage done to the building could be portrayed realistically and timely without guesswork involving. In addition to Sony Pictures Imageworks, provided visual effects for the crane disaster scene when Spider-Man rescues Gwen Stacy, as well as shots in the climactic battle.To understand the effects of sand for the Sandman, experiments were done with twelve types of sand, such as splashing, launching it at stuntmen, and pouring it over ledges.
The results were mimicked on the computer to create the visual effects for Sandman. For scenes involving visual effects, Thomas Haden Church was super-imposed onto the screen, where computer-generated imagery was then applied. With sand as a possible hazard in scenes that buried actors, ground-up corncobs were used as a substitute instead. Because of its resemblance to the substance, sand from was used as the model for the CG sand.
In a fight where Spider-Man punches through Sandman's chest, martial arts expert took Tobey Maguire's place in filming the scene. Humby, whose right hand was amputated at birth, helped deliver the intended effect of punching through Sandman's chest.Whereas the symbiote suit worn in the comics by Spider-Man was a plain black affair with a large white spider on the front and back, the design was changed for the film to become a black version of Spider-Man's traditional costume, complete with webbing. As a consequence of this, the suit wore as Venom also bore the webbing motif; as producer noted, 'it's the Spider-Man suit, but twisted and mangled in its own right.' Additionally, the motif gave a sense of life to the symbiote, giving it the appearance of gripping onto the character's body. When animating the symbiote, Raimi did not want it to resemble a spider or an octopus, and to give it a sense of character. The CG model is made of many separate strands.
When animating Venom himself, animators observed footage of such as and for the character's agile movements. Main article:Originally, the composer for the previous installments, did not plan to return for the third installment of Spider-Man because of difficulties with director Sam Raimi. Elfman said that he had a 'miserable experience' working with Raimi on Spider-Man 2 and could not comfortably adapt his music.
Was then announced to score Spider-Man 3 in Elfman's absence.According to Young, Sandman's theme uses 'two, two, two and eight very low ' in order to sound 'low, aggressive and heavy'. Young described Venom's theme as 'Vicious, my instructions on that one were that he's the devil personified. His theme is much more demonic sounding.' Venom's theme uses eight French horns.
Raimi approved the new themes during their first performance, but rejected the initial music to the birth of Sandman, finding it too monstrous and not tragic enough. Young had to recompose much of his score at a later stage, as the producers felt there were not enough themes from the previous films. Ultimately, new themes for the love story, Aunt May, and Mary Jane were dropped.
