And just for giggles, that camera system I described for Top Gun? Well, a
brand new behind the scenes trailer was just released today that shows it in action!
Right at the end of the sneak peek we can see just how hard Tom Cruise has to work, and watching this stuff makes me think they are really trying hard to make this show as hard-core believable as they can within the creative license envelope that exists. Super excited for this!
Oh, and a few shots of actors trying not to barf.
That afterburner shot, holy crap!
The new bit is only in the first 3rd of the clip, but, wow. The camera system is something else.
Six IMAX cameras in the cockpit (rear seat)! This will be one of those films you just have to see at the IMAX theater!
Think I'll take my wife. She gets carsick, so that should be fun.
Edit: And from about 10 minutes on,
this video demonstrates just how challenging the G-forces can be.
