That was a luxury that we took advantage of. MacFARLANE: Yeah, we had a little bit of liberty to do new Ted lines in post, in case something didn’t work. We had two great studios – Tippett and Iloura – that just knocked it out of the park for us.ĭid you re-write a lot of Ted’s dialogue in post?
We tried a fairly new technique of doing it all live on set, to get an improvisational feel, but it went surprisingly smooth. MacFARLANE: No, the special effects were surprisingly a smooth part of the process.
Seth, did the special effects turn out to be more of a pain in the ass than you expected? There was a concern of whether it would go into the scene seamlessly with the chemistry, even though Seth and I were having a great time acting opposite each other, and whether it would translate when you’re putting the bear into the actual scene. We got to see a little bit of the bear, before we started shooting. There’s not a question of why MacFarlane can do that, and do it incredibly well. As far as the animation or the look of the bear, I was never too concerned with that. Mine was very circumstantial, whether the bear was to the right of me or to the left of me or to the front of me. I didn’t have very much physical interaction with the bear. MILA KUNIS: You know what? It actually wasn’t so bad. It was more of a problem working with Mila. MARK WAHLBERG: I was a little nervous at first, but once we started getting into it, I felt comfortable pretty quickly. Mark and Mila, when you initially signed on, were you worried about co-starring opposite a bear? Did you wonder whether it would work, in terms of looking at the eye-line and the stuff you’d have to do with him? And then, when it came time to do my first movie, it seemed like a story that would make a much better film than a series.

I had originally conceived it as an animated series idea and, for a number of reasons, shelved it. This was an idea that had actually been floating around in my head for a while. SETH MacFARLANE: Family Guy had that little cancellation thing happen to it, and I wanted to make sure that it was fully on its feet, after coming back, before I stepped away to do a film because it did mean stepping away from the show completely for at least a year, and that was something that I hadn’t done yet. Question: Seth, what took so long for you to make a movie? Check out what they had to say after the jump.
For more on the film, here's four clips.Īt the film’s press day, co-stars Mark Wahlberg and Mila Kunis, along with Seth MacFarlane, talked about how this film came about, starring opposite a teddy bear, how smooth the special effects turned out to be, figuring out where to draw the line with offensive humor, how Sam Jones ( Flash Gordon) ended up in the film, and deciding on the specific look for Ted. Almost 30 years later, Ted is still by John’s side, to the increasing annoyance of his girlfriend, Lori ( Mila Kunis), who issues an ultimatum for John to leave his boyhood friend behind and enter adulthood. Bringing his boundary-pushing brand of humor to the big screen for the first time as writer, director, producer and voice star of the bear itself, the story is centered around John Bennett ( Mark Wahlberg), a grown man whose childhood wish brought his cherished teddy bear to life.

Ted is a raunchy, outrageous and hilariously funny live-action/CG-animated comedy from the zany mind of Seth MacFarlane, the man behind the animated TV show Family Guy.
