Making movies R Easy - A look BTS

[IndieBudget]

This is why you watch the credits, filmmakers work their butts off! Check out this awesome BTS video of a 2min Steadicam shot from the set of Hugo. Note the moving walls and furniture to make room for the camera operator.

But they would never do that for the boom-op....

Can't find it right now, but there's an awesome one of Hitchcock's Rope (I think), that has several walls that move, divide, split & reform to allow the camera to wander everywhere in the opening sequence one-shot.

Some of those sets are pretty remarkable.
