I love action movies, and in particular, scenes in cars. This doesn’t necessarily have to be a chase scene—I like almost any scene where the actors have to act and drive at the same time. I’m not a cinematographer, so I’m curious. How do directors film driving scenes?
From
horror movies
to action flicks, driving scenes have been popular in movies for decades. But the ways in which Hollywood makes these scenes look real varies.
Driving scenes are often filmed with green screens or using trailers. Some are filmed with stuntmen or stuntwomen behind the wheel.
In older movies where the actor is supposedly driving, the car was often just a prop. It was placed in front of a projection screen to appear as if it was moving.
However, modern movies tend to look more realistic. To film driving scenes, a real car is loaded onto a trailer. Then, a camera is mounted on the hood of the car facing the actors. A truck then pulls the trailer so the driver isn’t distracted by driving and can focus on doing their best acting.
Movies are pure fantasy. If you’ve been paying too much for car insurance, you may think that cheap insurance is a fantasy, too. That’s when the
