The Curate... We were filming a scene where The Writer and I find an abandoned house. Inside, we find some food and hide from the Martians. Just as we’re eating our first real food in days, the house begins to shake and the roof suddenly caves in on us. To get the effect, there were complicated and elaborate mechanical effects on set. These would be combined with CGI and miniature enhancements. Amongst the variety of set special effects, were devices that were designed to dump mountains of debris into the scene.  Naturally, this made me a little nervous. Tim had everything set up, and they had practiced where the debris would fall. It was one of those scenes you wanted to get right. “You’re sure they won’t hit us?” I asked Tim. “You might get hit with a stray piece, but it won’t hurt,” he promised. “I don’t want to get hit with any rocks,” I said. “They’re not rocks!”
