So, Day For Nite previs'd the scene, then stunt coordinator and second unit supervisor Dave Macomber helped plan it out with Xsen suits, with the stuntvis put into @unrealengine.bsky.social. This informed an array shoot on the I-105 Interstate Highway in Los Angeles.

When the array footage was being captured, a front-mounted GPS was also installed, meaning you could see what they were seeing at the front of the car. @wetafxofficial.bsky.social could then match it up with the array but also match up the GPS locations.

Principal photography of the actors on bluescreen made use of a specially-designed car rig, and a Technocrane for shooting.

“They shot this on a bluescreen stage with what we called the rotisserie, which was basically a skeleton of a Dodge Charger mounted onto an absolute beast of a steel metal frame, which weighed a ton." - @wetafxofficial.bsky.social vfx supe Sheldon Stopsack

"Takeover points was a big one to consider. We also started to figure out how to orchestrate the beats that then affect the world around them. There’s the inside world and the outside world, and for this we had an approach called a local space workflow." - Stopsack

Once everything had been stitched and blended together, artists lined up the ‘local space’ to what was needed for the highway. “This is where our animation team kicked in who did a lot of the orchestration of the traffic outside," says Stopsack

With the camera moving around a great deal, and with the car buck only being a portion of the vehicle, @wetafxofficial.bsky.social would ultimately replace much of the car interior with a digital version.
