Shooting schedule

the whole thing in about three and a half months. And so we had to build everything in a concentrated amount of time leading up to the shoot. And so everything had to be figured out in advance, and he had to make decisions long before the shoot day. And because this was the first time he was sort of letting go of control on the effects and handing it over to myself and the team, he had to make a lot of decisions, like I said, in advance of shooting it.

Again, this whole sequence was all within the first couple of weeks of shooting. And I don't think what Damien realized while we were shooting this film, again, in such a concentrated period of time, three and a half months, what it meant to prepare everything for literally like a daily shooting schedule of effects work.
