Ian Failes goes behind the scenes with Scott Waugh on how the created the three major stunts on Need for Speed.

Need-for-Speed

Need for Speed director Scott Waugh was once himself a stunt performer and co-ordinator. So when his new film – based on the popular EA video game series – came about, it was clear that Waugh had the knowledge, and audacity, to make the scenes of street racing, crashes and other stunts for real.

“Scottie wanted the film to be a throwback to the 60s and 70s style of the old race car movies back in the day of say Bullitt and Road Warrior,” DOP Shane Hurlbut told fxguide. “There was a sense of raw energy that just comes across so nicely with those older films. We wanted to do a very contemporary looking piece with the latest tech and small cameras, immersing this audience and putting them in the driver’s seat at 180 miles an hour.”

Although that meant that each stunt and special effect would be attempted practically, it did not preclude the use of visual effects. Far from it, as visual effects supervisor Kevin Baillie oversaw work by Atomic Fiction and Cantina Creative to augment what had been achieved in-camera. “It was so refreshing to work on a project where the default answer isn’t, ‘Oh we’ll just figure it out later – in post’,” comments Baillie. “To have a team, everyone from the director down, to figure out how to do the best we could while shooting. Not in a ‘we hate visual effects kind of way’, more in a ‘we want this to look as good as it can possibly look’ way.”

Below, we break down three of the biggest stunts in the film in terms of how they were shot and executed and how visual effects contributed to the final shots. But first, here’s a look at some of the challenges the filmmakers faced in bring the street races, crashes and car sequences to life.
