This “Making Of” video of Children of Men just popped up on YouTube. It particularly explains just how the long unbroken shots, that may become a Children of Men trademark and something I’ve talked about before, were done. Of particular note is the specialized camera rigs that had to literally be invented to capture the films final shots.

User blairerickson posted this video on YouTube a few days ago and I thought it was a great little short. It’s a compilation of Children of Men clips interspersed with snippets from the many glowing reviews the movie has received. As far as Children of Men being nominated for an Academy Award in ‘06 I know that that is why the films North American distributors pushed for a limited release at the tail end of 2006.
