When it comes to the big screen, the viewer, like you and me, gets to see only a tiny part of the carefully staged and very well-calculated world that happens behind the cameras.
We suspect there are hundreds of people if not more working behind the scenes, while we only get to see one or two actors in one shot. Turns out the magic happens way before the lights go off in movie theatres and it takes one hell of a joint effort to make the final result reach the audience.
Thanks to the “Far Out Cinema” Facebook page, which has collected some of the most intriguing, rarely seen and totally wild photos from behind the scenes, we can now get a real glimpse behind the lights, camera, action.
