RUNNING ORDER/ITINERARY
On arrival you will get a full briefing on how the sessions will run and will then be introduced to Sam & Brad at which point they will give a demo of the stunts you will learn.
1) Jay turn spinning the car 180% from reverse to forward without stopping and they will be taught the only way that is approved in or on a film set. No one else in the UK teaches these methods as Sam was taught by the most famous stunt man in Hollywood.
2) Proper use of the handbrake and industry secrets of how to manipulate this tool to make the car do a multitude of tricks and again by Sam’s own techniques derived from the United States and years of experience to find the best way.
3) Push and pull technique with the steering wheel this shows how to use the wheel in an efficient way to keep the stunt smooth for the camera shot and also lets the actor’s hands be filmed on the wheel without too much editing.
4) Box park. Sliding the car into a space just big enough for the car this is a tricky little stunt that if done right makes the customer feel like a hero!
5) High speed reverse slalom this is a very skilful technique that is used in most films and it involves driving in reverse at high speed only using the mirrors steering wheel control is crucial in this one.
5) Front wheel drive power slide. This is to manipulate a front wheel drive car into a big angle to give it a greater sense of speed to the camera and audience watching.
6) Drifting on a film set is very different to in a big open space. There is no room for error so Sam’s techniques will give you the skills to drive like a genuine stunt man.
7) Doughnut. This looks easy but it is the first trick you need to master before you move on to more skilled tricks.
8) Figure eight this is making the car slide in a very technical figure eight shape which makes the car look like it is dancing and also looks good on camera.
