Use Of Scale Model Film Sets Before/During Production ? |

Coll,
Such miniature sets were indeed often used to work out camera positions and other practical considerations before the start of filming, so I daresay it's possible the model you mentioned originated with this purpose. And digitally animated 'storyboards' (called animatics) are used for a similar purpose today. I don't know of any such AZW-related materials, however! Sheldon |

Thankyou. It is a very interesting aspect of film-making. The idea of 'seeing' the whole set as a model or 3D image. Being able to look around and locate certain areas where specific scenes would occur, but at the same time aware of the 'bigger picture', as in, where everybody else is in the film in the surrounding area itself. Basically, a bird's eye view of almost the whole area where all the action takes place in the film. The only recent scale model I've seen regarding film-making and the discussing of positioning shots, etc., was for 'The Terminal' with Tom Hanks. In the behind-the-scenes documentary, it showed you the model and the director visualising where everything happens, camera locations, etc. Fascinating. Thanks again Coll |

Further to the above.
An idea of what I am meaning is seen in The Lt.'s topic on the Games Forum of this site. Using a scale model of Rorke's Drift and figures, he is telling the story in well-taken images (storyboarding) which does give an insight into the use of such models by film companies. Coll |
