Matthew Underwood Instagram – Every time I take a moment to scroll through my albums, I stumble upon more awesome memories from filming Zoey 102 to share with y’all.
@erinsanders always had a real film camera to snap pics; here are a few of them that I’m quite fond of. (Last two are bonus content)
1) Erin, @nanhower (our Director), and I on the last day of filming.
2) We’re making COTTON SWAB Flowers for the PCA wedding scene. What a day! #behindthescenes
3) Erin and I in our 2nd wedding attire at #PCA!
4) a row of #filmmaking chairs on set with our character names on them.
5) Bonus pic! This is our director Nancy Hower @nanhower, our genius DP Matthew Rudenberg @rudenberg_dp, and our incredible camera operators John Lehman and Mike Repeta. It was quite a treat to watch Nancy and Matthew work out how they want to capture her vision and then see it all come together, with John and Mike using their magic touch to seemingly float around the scene.
There are some incredible shots in the movie that are over a minute long, called “Oners”. They’re not easy to shoot with so many moving parts. The first scene in the movie has one, can you spot it?
6) Bonus Video: My favorite “oner” in the movie. John started off strapped onto a hydraulic lift 2 stories up, his steadicam looking down the barrel of a trumpet. He’s lowered down to ground level where he is unbuckled from the platform and steps off while simultaneously finding me in his frame. Then he tracks me to @chrismasseytmb, then to @audreywhitby, then to @abbywilde, then Bubbe, and finally to @erinsanders and @jamielynnspears – with insane precision. (audio doesn’t match up because we used a different take in the movie. This is video from the camera feed on set and the audio from the film so you can hear it.)
This crew absolutely slayed and I can’t thank them enough for making the movie look so damn good. So much more to share!
