The Aliens Strike Back
President Lanford (Sela Ward) meets with Hiller.
Technocrane operator.
To ensure smooth cuts with the
master shot, Emmerich's coverage tended
to be moving, as well. "You end up with
this master shot and all of these people
56
choreographed and moving through the
frame with incredible precision,"
Förderer says. "Then we go into
coverage and every shot covers the full
action, even if you're moving on a
135mm lens for a close-up! Sometimes
it's impossible to keep focus on those
shots, but you know you have other
moments to [cut away to], since every
shot covers all the action.
"Roland organizes and orchestrates all the actors and background,"
Förderer relates. "We talk [briefly] about
where to place cameras, we do one
rehearsal, and he sees what will
potentially be a problem in close-up five
or 10 setups later, and we change it for
the master to avoid the problem later. It's
a big puzzle, and it's a challenge to light
this way because we're basically always
lighting for 360 degrees. We might bring
in a diffusion frame from time to time if
we're shooting a special close-up, but
otherwise our master look is what we run
with for the coverage. This is where
LED really helps; it's quick and easy to
dial in a little more backlight or fade up
or down an area as we pass by it. It's
amazing how fast it can go."
