WOW. The popularity of the BSG exhibit caught the EMP unprepared. They must realize a good thing when they see it!

EMP|SFM members will be the first to journey into the spectacular world of Pandora when AVATAR: The Exhibition opens in Seattle on June 4, 2011! Organized by EMP|SFM, AVATAR: The Exhibition will take you deep into Pandora where you will discover how the world you saw on screen came to be.
Wonder at the world of Pandora itself with props and items from the film, including the actual AMP (Armored Mobility Platform) suit used in the combat scenes, soldier uniforms, and the original, hand-made models of the Na'vi characters and their wardrobes. Step into James Cameron's shoes and directly experience the process of creating a film like AVATAR through a series of interactive installations that demonstrate the groundbreaking use of motion capture, virtual camera and 3-D technologies that were employed in the film.
Here are a few words about the exhibition from EMP|SFM Curator Brooks Peck and AVATAR director James Cameron:
"We're honored to work with James Cameron and debut AVATAR: The Exhibition at our museum...AVATAR completely revolutionized filmmaking, advancing production technologies and processes, and forever changing how we watch movies. In the exhibition we'll bring to life the imagination of AVATAR as well as the technological innovations Cameron mastered to capture the magic on-screen."
-EMP|SFM Curator Brooks Peck
"The exhibition is going to be a unique opportunity for people to learn more not only about how the film was made, but also experience Pandora in a much deeper way. Fans will be able to see in person the workmanship behind the film, whether it's how scenes are captured; or how a Na'vi costume was built first as a real world garment then produced digitally."
-Director James Cameron
