How ‘The Studio’ Pulled Off Its One-Take Episode: Weeks of Planning, Dozens of Takes and Lots of Flubbed Lines
How "The Studio" pulled off Its one-Take episode, "The Oner," with weeks of planning, dozens of takes and lots of flubbed lines.
When cinematographer Adam Newport-Berra heard about Rogen and Goldberg’s plan to use a lot of oners throughout the series, as well as shoot an entire episode in a continuous take, he was more than game for the challenge. We tried to be kind, gracious and supportive of everyone, but the truth is everyone would make mistakes, and every single member of the crew at some point flubbed a take or walked into a shot or bumped the camera, and it’s just the nature of what we’re doing. I think Kathryn Hahn …she would break the scene a lot of times because she would say something so ridiculously funny, and Seth would crack up, or half the cast or the operator would start laughing.
