A safe jump between two low platforms, finished as a leap between skyscrapers 40 floors up.

The shot
A stunt performer sprints along a stage platform, clears a wide gap, rolls on landing and looks back. That is the plate. In the final he makes the same jump between two skyscraper rooftops at sunset, with the avenue 40 floors below.
How it was made
The plate was generated as flat, ungraded footage, the way it would come off a cinema camera on a real stunt day. A matching rooftop plate was then built from the same eye line, and the performance was transferred onto it. The camera move, the timing and every beat of the jump match the plate, frame for frame.
