Provide an example of the use of the following in filming miniatures in Lord of the Rings.



Atmosphere - Adding a blue haze and lowering contrast of things that are that you want to seem further away allows the visual system to perceive it that way
Perspective - forced perspective (static camera, because hobbit - human height difference is 0.75:1, if frodo and gandalf in same scene, put frodo ⅓ distance away, in cart scene, frodo seating behind gandalf although it seems like they seat next to each other)
Detail - Where there were going to be close-up shots, the artists ensured the detail would stand up to scrutiny ( the steps )
Color
Familiar size - actors wear large clothes and walk past hobbits. This works because we have a mental heuristic for how large a human body is
