These four exclusive BTS videos reveal how Damien Chazelle and his team shot ‘La La Land.’
It’s difficult not to get excited when a really good musical comes to town. Such is the case for Damien Chazelle’s Oscar frontrunner La La Land, whose historic number of Academy Award nominations (14) and lovely song and dance duo Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone has everybody and their mom, dad, and grandma talking about it.
But now there’s a little something for filmmakers and film nerds to talk about. Chazelle has released a series of exclusive videos to Indiewire, Deadline, and The Hollywood Reporter that take you behind the scenes of the jazzy musical to reveal how some of the most memorable scenes were shot, including the gorgeous waltz and “jazz whip” sequences.
Here’s the exclusive video given to Indiewire, which shows you one of the more complicated shots in La La Land.
Chazelle gave Deadline a behind-the-scenes look at how the team pulled off two different shots: the waltz and “jazz whip” sequences.
