this was kind of a let down i watched until the end and was expecting something more.
And yet, today, such a shot is still as impossible and very rarely done.
It's a complex shot and there isn't really that big of pay off beyond having done the shot, but it's by no means "impossible", or am I missing something here?
Because it requires imagination. And then careful planning. And then execution.
In the shot, there is a crowd in the streets, there are people on balconies and in the rooms acting in concert with the camera etc.
These days this is offloaded to overworked underpaid CGI artists at a second production unit.
