Originally, Stanley Kubrick had Stuart Freeborn create a primitive but more human-like make-up for the actors playing the australopithecines, but he couldn't find a way to photograph them in full length without getting an X-rating from the MPAA, since they had to be naked. So Kubrick went with a hairier model. With the exception of two baby chimpanzees, all were played by humans in costume. Freeborn and his wife Kay Freeborn used comic actor Ronnie Corbett as a make-up model, but he did not appear in the final film. Daniel Richter, who plays the australopithecine Moon-Watcher, choreographed most of these scenes. Early viewers of the movie wondered where Kubrick obtained such well-trained monkeys. It was later joked that "2001" lost the Best Makeup Academy Award to John Chambers for Il pianeta delle scimmie (1968) because the judges didn't realize the "2001" australopithecines were really humans, but there was no nomination list at all, as the award was not created until 1981--Chambers' award was merely honorary.
