Line 53:
* ''[[Children of Men]]'' features a number of these, with a degree of special effects assistance which has not been completely revealed. It's known that some of the shots used blue screen effects, and some were stitched together cleverly from short takes.
** The in-car sequence required a complex rig that was placed on top of the car so there would be no equipment in the car aside from the camera itself while it was moving. CGI was used heavily to add elements that would have been impossible to film traditionally, as well as replacing parts of the car that had to be removed.
** [[Alfonso Cuaron]] seems to enjoy these - there's a couple of sequences in ''[[Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (film)|Harry Potter Andand Thethe Prisoner Ofof Azkaban]]'' that use this, such as a panning shot starting outside Hogwarts and going inside to see our heroes around three-quarters of the way in.
*** The Time-Turner scene. Hermione puts the Time-Turner around hers and Harry's necks. They go back in time and turn around to run out of the clock tower. The camera goes out through the clock and catches up with them in the courtyard. This all happens in one take which lasts for slightly longer than one minute.
*** [[Chris Columbus]] was impressed by these because the length of the shots in the first film were ''literally how long the kids could stay in character''. The kids improved a bit by the second film, so the shots are somewhat longer than on the first, but not by too much. So naturally Columbus found it impressive that they had come far enough to do an entire scene in one take by the third movie.
