Thanks for all your great work.

What specific shots did you work on in 2001? (A description in words or DVD or Blu-ray timings are fine.)

How much guidance did Kubrick give you, how much did he explain or describe what he wanted? Did he give you general or specific instructions? Did he look at your work in progress and say "No, try again--experiment, surprise me" or "No, I will tell you exactly what I want it to look like ..."?

Thanks!

By the opening minute you mean the title sequence of moon, Earth and sun with ASZ playing? If so, what did he task you with? Did he say "Depict an eclipse or a dawn--do it any way you please"? Or "Depict it in an interesting way"? Or "Depict it in this specific way ..."?

My understanding (via a Harlan interview) is that the selection of the music for that shot came much later--did you discuss the music with Kubrick?

Sorry to keep peppering you with questions but I have a lot--have you given an in depth interview about the movie? Are you planning a memoir about it?

Thanks again.
