and so, like, these were the sort of shots i was trying to find and give to ilm.a lot on the creation of the robots themselves and also on the big action sequences, new camera technology helped to speed up the shooting and reduce the crew size even further. we shot the movie on a new camera that came outjust before we started filming, which was called the sony fx3. and it's kind of the size of a domestic mirrorless camera, and it meantjust working backwards. the camera was small. it meant it could now go on equipment called a gimbal, which stabilises the shot. and then because of the sensitivity of the camera, it meant we didn't need really powerful, crazy, massive lights on big cranes all the time. we could have battery—operated led lights. and so just like you have a boom operator with a microphone, we had what's called a best boy — nancy, her name was — and she had a pole with the light on the end. and so as we're filming a scene, i suddenly want to go round here. normally on a movie, that would take 15 minutes to move all the lights and move all the equipment,
