Peter Jackson Starts Production Vlogs For “The Hobbit” Dan Koelsch, April 15, 2011 When Peter Jackson was directing The Lord of the Rings trilogy starting in 2000, he would periodically post video blogs from the set of the films. At the time, it was a rather innovative idea, considering YouTube was years away, and video sharing on the Internet as a whole was limited at best.
