Despite the numerous pitfalls inherent to using more than one camera, it was decided that the benefits outweighed the drawbacks. Multi-camera shooting takes very careful planning and can raise more problems than it solves — for example lighting is more difficult to get right and there’s more chance for errors to

occur which cause more takes.

action being filmed at the same time to show what the crew and rest of the cast was doing, along with a composite of all 4 cameras playing at the same time.
