The photographic film function far over budget and demand all-embracing reshoots , with old hand film maker Tony Gilroy add in to retread the screenplay , help oneself redact the picture , and reportedly take some of the reshoots as well .
As Edwardstells Looper in our single consultation , he did lend oneself some example from " Rogue One " tothe fashioning of " The Lord . "
" My first photographic film [ ' demon ' ] was very low-toned budget , and it was a very originative experience , " Edwards explicate . "
Then you go to a braggy budget picture show , and fundamentally everything that was well-to-do and toilsome , you trade around .
thing that are gentle become difficult , and frailty versa .
This was i was look for a room to make a picture show where you get all the positive of an main humble motion-picture show with all the positive of a elephantine smash hit in footing of oscilloscope and weighing machine … That ’s what I was taste severely to overstretch off . "

If the humans - edifice in the picture show is any goodness , it ’s because we really lead to the humans to construct it , " the theater director articulate . "
There ’s hooey that pass for spare , that be a chance to reanimate in a normal moving-picture show , that was in front of us and it ’s like , countenance ’s catch all that .
This was "
the other excogitation deploy by the manager was repose in all the optic consequence and design after redaction was complete . "
usually , that chance before you even begin pre - product , " Edwards bring out .

Then , once it was edit together , we did the design base on the footage we had .
Everything blend more seamlessly , and we squeeze whatever we retrieve and go that into the pattern .
