Rising coronavirus cases also mean that despite the great strides film sets have made in cobbling together thorough safety protocols, the pandemic is a force that can\u2019t be contained. That may result in another round of widespread shutdowns, which could soon halt filming in places like London and Georgia. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> In any environment, blockbuster filmmaking is an extremely tedious and labor-intensive process that requires hundreds upon hundreds of hands: from actors, directors and extras to hair and makeup artists and catering staff. In other words, it\u2019s the stuff of nightmares at a time when a deadly airborne virus is circulating.  And in many ways, the blockbuster franchise wrote the rulebook for pandemic productions, consisting of intense and scrupulous measures \u2014 like electronic temperature checks, routine swab tests, daily safety briefings and color-coded zones to organize cast and crew \u2014 that will likely become de rigueur for movie sets across the globe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Masks and physical distancing are commonplace everywhere these days. But to protect against a flare-up, sets are divided into different \u201czones\u201d to distance the crew accordingly. After each person arrives on set and goes through a temperature testing station, they are given wrist bands that correspond with the color zone they\u2019re assigned to work that day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Instead of crowding around monitors, everyone has their own iPad to individually monitor what\u2019s happening on camera.  Aside from coronavirus testing, perhaps the most necessary \u2013 and priciest \u2013 expense was renting out space for principal cast and crew members to limit their exposure to the outside world.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, if you want to make a movie in 2021, think again and again&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An Expensive and Exhausting Road to make movies during pandemic Shooting movies has become more expensive and more time consuming, and that\u2019s not likely to change.
