 One of the most exciting parts of our film was creating the high-energy action sequences. Street racing is all about speed, adrenaline, and tension, so it was crucial to capture that in our shots. Nathaniel and David worked together to plan out the race scenes, mapping out the best angles and positions to film the cars. We decided to use a combination of close-up shots for the drivers’ reactions and wide shots to show the intensity of the races. We rented specialized equipment like car rigs and stabilizers to make sure the footage was smooth while maintaining the high-speed feel. The stunt coordinator helped us plan some of the more complicated maneuvers, and we made sure to practice each sequence before filming. The actors did some of their own stunts, but we also had a professional driver for certain shots. The drone came in handy for capturing aerial views of the races, adding depth and excitement to the scenes. We filmed a few races at night to give the film a darker, more intense vibe, and the lighting played a huge role in setting the tone. There were moments when the crew was holding their breath as the cars zoomed past, and it felt like we were really creating something special. Throughout the filming, we kept adjusting the action sequences to ensure they were as thrilling as possible. Each race was different, with unique challenges and obstacles for the main character to face. The goal was to make the audience feel like they were right there with the racers, experiencing the adrenaline rush firsthand. The action sequences really started to come together as we filmed more, and we couldn’t wait to see how they would look in the final edit. By the end of the shoot, we had a collection of high-octane racing scenes that we knew would stand out.
