During the live shooting, I found a "appropriate" window sill for Worthington, which is not only convenient for the crew to work safely, but also suitable for photography from all angles. For the convenience of the later stage, he and Cameron walked onto the windowsill together to study the angle of photography and the editing space for later stage. This kind of preliminary work has found a way to break the routine for Cameron's photography. And it avoids the nausea and dizziness of the audience when watching high-rise scenes. What's more important is the complicated and changeable camera positions and viewing angles, as well as avoiding the possibility of boredom and repetition for the audience. Paul Cameron used contrast and first-person shooting methods in the film, using Worthington's angle to shoot toward the ground, and also from the perspective of onlookers.
