Stairway to Heaven – 2005
 

 vfx:

In this scene, dead William watches his living self with Sarah (Step Rowe.)

This was shot at Uptown Studios, Austin against their hard cyc.  We accidentally moved the camera between setups in the first scene and had to reposition the camera to capture Jonathan Boatwright's back seat performance.  The match wasn't perfect, but was close enough to position the separate frames and build composite lines.

A CG background of a mid-town Manhattan traffic jam will be added later.  The exterior of the car will also be replaced with CG in order to build reflections on the roof, hood, and windshield.
