Location Brief

The Invasion of Crete

​These opening sequences are quite resource heavy but important to lay out our stall that this is going to be a thrilling ride!
Paratroopers to be done in CGI.

​The Greek landscape is perfect for hiding BG numbers in dense undergrowth and behind walls, whilst retaining a kinetic, urgent camera style. 

North Africa

Eddie's opening sabotage attack and Intelligence HQ in Cairo. Simple design, golds and sandy colour – a very different colour pallet to the other acts in Greece, which are blue and green. These locations are easy to find in Greece.

But it’s also silhouette-y and dark and clandestine.

​This setting evokes The Spy Who Loved Me, Raiders, and of course Lawrence of America.

Exterior planes are CGI

​Shot in silhouette at sunset and night so CGI detailing less of a give-away.

Interior planes will be real

​Suggest finding a real one – done this before and it works well.

Greek Mountain

Are epic! – it’s going to be like a war-western.  BIG trailer moments.

Paths, caves and canyons

Village and interior

The Bridge

​This is the real one. It still stands. There are obvious benefits if we can shoot there.

​Though it might be better to build cg one – which we’re going to have to do to blow it up anyway
