Notes: | The overall brief was to bring maximum destruction! The heaviest post scenes were the swimming pool and penthouse, where we shot 1/3 and 1/2 scale lifts respectively. For the penthouse scene, we also had a half-scale room for the lift to smash through, allowing us to keep some interaction. Shooting miniatures requires a fair amount of maths, so Sam (Director), Kasper (DOP) and I did plenty of prepping and testing before heading into the shoot. For a lot of the other scenes, such as the elderly couples’ apartments, we managed to capture a certain amount of chaos and destruction in-camera and build it up afterwards. It was a huge production effort with large set builds on gimbals and a full-scale lift shaft for the lift to run through. The SFX guys did an amazing job. With almost all of the spot being a studio shoot we had a fair amount of matte painting to do. We also created full CG environments for when the lift is up high in the sky. The job involved producing lots of dust, debris, liquid, smoke, atoms, not to mention clouds, cracks and explosions- all the fun stuff basically! |
