"Some scenes have been re-created"
The ClubHouse: Archives: "Some scenes have been re-created"
Wilsonatmd | Wednesday, May 09, 2001 - 11:43 am  According to the New York Times, Mark Burnett has admitted that some of the competition scenes are re-created with stand-ins. It doesn't affect the outcome of the game. He does this especially for the wide shots, because the cameras for the close-ups would have been in the shots otherwise, and it would have ruined the effect. Personally, I don't have a problem with it, so long as they admit it. Like when The Mole was on, they always put a disclaimer at the end of the show about recreations. That's fine. But Mark Burnett conveniently doesn't say anything until AFTER the program ends? I don't know about that. |
Fruitbat | Wednesday, May 09, 2001 - 12:03 pm  I understand why he says it afterward, completely. Takes some of the viewing pleasure away. We would have spent time looking at the wide shots to see if we could spot the differences. It would interrupt the continuity and possibly our enjoyment. In fact, why does he admit that now? I will be looking for this in Africa. |
