Had an Amazing Experience Doing Stunt Work On A Movie- Here’s Why
I had an amazing experience doing stunt work on the Tom Hanks feature, A Man Called Otto. Here’s why.
After getting cast, the agent told me I was going to have a stunt double. Here is the short version (you will get all of the details in the video.)
My Stunt Double
My stunt double did the fall a few times, they “checked the gate” (making sure the glass in the camera was clean, so what was shot could be used) and then we moved onto another setup.
He did an incredible job. Later in the day, I was asked if I was comfortable doing the stunt myself. I immediately said yes. And, did the stunt (it was a fall) a few times.
Preparing For The Stunt
It was an amazing learning experience. The stunt coordinator and the other stunt artists on the set helped me tremendously. They taught me exactly what I needed to do and more importantly what not to do while doing the stunt.
