A filmmaker’s journal.

Today I watched someone willingly jump through a tempered glass window.

We spent several hours setting up this shot, and got it in one take. We shot at 48fps, so it’ll come out as a half-speed slow motion.

Will Carson is our stunt man. He is truly dedicated to his craft, which is another way of saying he’s fucking insane. Even with all of the safety precautions we took, when it comes right down to it, he’s still jumping through a big sheet of tempered glass. This man is a badass. The pictures below only give an idea of how cool this looked. I can’t wait to see the footage.
