My question is to all Pilots, both Military and Commercial, who have had experience working with the Motion Picture Industry, i.e. those making films for exhibition in all facets, from Cinema and Television, Fiction and Documentaries, is how the Two Industries go about doing their job they have to do, while working within the confines of the Regulations, and whether regulations are amended, temporarily or permanently to deal with the unique requests and challenges of commiting these spectacular images to celluloid or Solid State Hard Drive as is the case today.
I want to use one example from the present in which Tom Cruise was recently filmed holding onto the outside of an Airbus A400M, (Safety tethers were digitally removed in Post Production) for his latest film, Mission Impossible - Rogue Nation.
I have a background in Television News Gathering and have been fascinated with both Aviation and Cinema, so I was hoping someone would provide and insight into how the film makers, and in this case, Airbus were able to make this spectacular scene happen for the film, given the stringent Industry Safety Regulations. Also feel free to quote other examples, i.e. Top Gun, Bond Films, etc, even regarding the use of camera's mounted on U.A.V.'s which in time, will become more common. Thanks in advance, for any insights.
