Wednesday, August 26th, 2015I noticed that the cars BTS video has the sweetest closeup yet of the Nux car bobblehead. I think it’s cute that the left eye (which would be the Nux-facing one, given the Nux car’s right-hand drive) has a cool eyeball, while the right eye just has a bolt:

Even though my scenes didn’t make the final cut of Mad Max Fury Road – it was all such an amazing experience. George Miller is the most patient and kindest man and the crew and cast I worked with were all so exceptionally talented. What a pleasure it was to be apart of! – Debra Ades

I love seeing posts from someone I follow work it’s way around to someone else I follow who is unrelated to the first.
Me too! :-)

Monday, August 10th, 2015Furiosa’s slide under the rig
Friday, July 24th, 2015I was checking out this cool bts image Dayna Grant posted on Twitter:
And that made me want to check out the scene in the movie again.
Here she is running along the right side of the rig (because after Furiosa yelled “fool” she dove from the left side to the right, to avoid the Rock Riders’ bullets). Note the sun shining on the right side of the rig, with the left side in shadow:
The next shot has a little bit of a continuity issue, since she’s passing the same set of wheels a second time, but it’s no big deal:
Incoming Rock Rider from the left (now the sunny side):
Dayna slides under the rig – but from the left side:
Rock Rider sliding in from the (now shady) left side:
…and catching Dayna!Furiosa’s legs, while we cut between two shots, the first of which has the sun on the left side of the rig, while the second, from a camera mounted under the rig, seems to show the sun back on the original right side:
I understand they made a decision early in the shoot not to worry too much about trying to maintain continuity with sun angles, which is fine.
But I’m fascinated by the decision to flop the fourth shot to show her sliding in from the left side of the rig rather than the right. Why did they do that? Were they trying to create a heightened sense of chaos/jeopardy by showing something that would subconsciously register as wrong while being too quick to consciously notice? I’ve read about Friedkin doing that with the wrong-way freeway chase in To Live and Die in L.A.; maybe it’s more of a thing than I realized?

I’ve always been so focused on Nux in that last shot that I’ve never noticed before that Rictus is standing in (and having his toxic patriarchal parts ignited by) the flames from the engine block.
