Avatar - First official behind the scenes photo of James Cameron's sci-fi epic

The LA Times had the photo. It shows James Cameron talking to Sam Worthington (Terminator Salvation) on the set of Avatar. Not sure how much of the set will be in the final film as a lot of it will be CGI. We shall have to wait and see.

The buzz surrounding James Cameron's big-budget return to science fiction has been nothing short of awe-inspiring. The film, a mix of CGI and live action using new techniques Cameron himself helped to develop, was shot with a special 3-D camera (also developed by Cameron). Mix that with the promise of large-scale, hard science fiction that hasn't been attempted much in the past few years, and you have a project that seems guaranteed to live up to the hype and expectations that are riding on it. The only question (and fear) is what is to become of the cinema geeks overwhelmed by the images that Cameron and his effects crew are putting in front of them. For those with weaker constitutions, we fear the worst.
