Question

1.
Principal photography is done, but now the company needs to reshoot some scenes. However, one of the actors involved is already filming another movie and cannot change his hairstyle or facial hair due to contractual obligations. How will you complete the reshoots (a term in the industry when you have to return to principal photography to fill in any missing scenes)?


2.
The director wants your movie’s humanoid monster to move like a famous actor that inspired the director as a little kid, but that actor passed away almost 60 years ago, so you can’t cast him in the movie. What do you do?

Explain how you will solve these 2 challenges.

Answer 1

in the first case, you can pretend that the character changed style or you can call the extras of that actor who is usually like the actor. In the second, you can see if that actor has small relatives who look like it or you can always look for someone who looks like us as much as possible
