How should the Giants be portrayed?

I've been thinking latey about how the Giants will be portrayed in the film, both technically and how they will look.
Since we are fairly certain that Silver Chair will have a smaller budget then any of the previous films, I would be inclined to think it likely that they will do them using real actors with forced perspective and scaled sets and not fully CGI giants, I know that's how they did Rumblebuffin and Wimblweather in the first two films though they had vary little screen time, but since in the Silver Chair you do have scenes with giants interacting with normal sized people perhaps some CG would be necessary.
As for there look, I think it might be a interesting idea for them to emphasize the difference between the giants of Ettinsmoor and the one at Harfang, not just in there intelligence and behavior but also there physical appearance. like perhaps the Ettinsmoor giants could be a little bigger more imposing and more wild looking and perhaps have subtlehy exaggerated features then the Harfang giants, the contrast between them might make the Harfang giants seem more trust worthy at first to the audience.
