okay, this may be a dumb question which everyone in the world knows about but just didn't decide to tell me... in some films i've seen, theres ben shots where theres someone sittin' on a stool brushin' their hair and the camera is goin' around the person from behind, always looking at the person through the reflection in the mirror. How do they do that solid shot without catchin' a glimps of the camera, crew, bla, bla, in the mirror. tomatoe666 |

It's easy... You put blocks behind the bottom of the mirror and tilt it slightly up... the camera, crew, etc. passes below the mirrior's line of sight[This message has been edited by Stuntman (edited 04-19-99).] |

They hire special vampire crews for those shots.  |

They are quite expensive cause they only work night time. If you need a day shot, youŽll have to do night-for-day... ..and you canŽt pay them with corn syrup. |
