Final 48

Shot as an homage to the Danish film movement Dogme 95, Final 48 was filmed on six cameras, with nine characters, in four days, at one location.

While the story was scripted, the dialogue was improvised in real time. None of the actors knew the other actors reveals until the action played out during filming.

To preserve the reactions for the actors, the film was shot in scene order, in one take per scene, and completing the full film in just two days.

Using six cameras allowed the filmmakers to set up three camera in one room with another three cameras waiting in the next room to shorten set up time and allow coverage of the action by shooting from three angles at once.

After the first two days, the director and editor put together a rough cut in 48 hours to determine pick up shots and the pick up shots were done in two additional days completing the whole film in just four days.
