Building the foreground hanging miniature for Ben Elton's Stark.
Miniature refinery for Stark.
This is a hanging miniature that is filmed on location to expand on a full size set construction. It has to match perfectly to the set.
We had plans and photos of the set we had to copy. This is a big refinery and only the base section was built full size.
The model was to be hung on a scaff rig and filmed outdoors so had to be sturdy.
We matched everything perfectly with only one small pipe section moved to match the background. Alan is adjusting the dish.
The model was suspended from scaffolding which was hidden behind detail structures. Setting up a shot from the side.
This was all that was built on location.
What the final shot was to look like. You can see someone walking behind the model on the right side.
