The World Wide Web site Nintendo Life has the interview.

Thanks for posting this, Mario500!

It seems like Rocky was involved in providing a few interviews to promote Second Sight's Blu-Ray release. There was also another interview I read today HERE at Flickering Myth.

As far as this Nintendo Life interview goes, I found Rocky's response to this question very intriguing:

Can you outline the process of transferring an early ‘90s movie into HD for the Blu-Ray format?

I’ve got nothing to do with it. Nobody approached me. I’d have loved to have been involved, because there’s a lot of things I could have done to make it look fantastic. I’ve spent my whole [career] making TV commercials and photographing them and finishing them to make them look beautiful. I could have done a great job, but that’s the way the way these things go.

It's great to see that Rocky is still interested in the film to the point where he'd "love" to be involved in a new transfer. What if this Blu-Ray sells so well that SS considered letting Rocky supervise a true "Director's Cut"? Of course, having access to all the deleted scenes and footage would be the biggest hurdle...but like I said, it's great to know that Rocky would do it if asked.

I agree, this interview was extremely enlightening. I do hope we can eventually secure an interview with Rocky Morton in the future and directly as him about this!
