Chloë Grace Moretz and Asa Butterfield in Hugo
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Hugo’s VFX supervisor describes the film’s most challenging shot. Based on the novel The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick, Hugo is a 2011 film directed by Martin Scorsese. It stars Asa Butterfield as the titular Hugo, who is a young boy living in the walls of a Paris train station, where he is tasked to keep the clocks running.
The difficulty of this shot came primarily from the fact that Legato was only given “12 minutes to shoot this shot” because of the restrictive filming hours in England, where the film was shot. The shot thus involved incredibly advanced planning, including five sets and a rig that involved moving the set. Check out Legato’s quote below:
So this is this rig. It’s a stereo rig, so it’s one camera on top of another. So I’m actually going straight down and we’re turning the set. That’s the rig. Recognizing its technical prowess, Hugo won five Oscars in Best Cinematography, Best Sound Mixing, Best Sound Editing, Best Achievement in Visual Effects, and Best Achie`vement in Art Direction.
