EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE BREAKDOWN

A filmmaking team known as the Daniels (Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert) delivered one of the most creative, ambitious, and visually stunning films of the year — Everything Everywhere All At Once. And they did it with a limited crew and a paltry budget compared to other films of the same scope. But how? In this EEAAO analysis, we learn about the practical sets, props, and effects they pulled off, along with the insane process of how they were able to execute 500 VFX shots with only 7 people working in their bedrooms during the pandemic.

The first obstacle for the team behind EEAAO was to find a suitable place to shoot multiple sets and locations. They ended up in an empty mortgage company headquarters where all the IRS scenes were filmed, as well as the family’s apartment and the “alpha-verse motor home interior.” By shooting the bulk of their scenes in a single location, they could save time and money moving between different locations.

In the film, countless universes are shown, some for less than a second, and to help keep the audience from complete confusion, the cinematography helps to differentiate them. These decisions included the color palettes for the major universes, aspect ratios, and various camera lenses. Next were the practical effects, including a talking raccoon, the hot dog hands, as well as the rather involved fight choreography.

But for everything the Daniels and their crew were able to capture on set, there were still over 500+ VFX shots that needed to be completed in post. Again, if this were a major studio film with a massive budget, these effects could have been done by hundreds of VFX artists from multiple effects houses. Instead, they hired a group of filmmaker friends to handle the job. This allowed for cheaper VFX as well as more creative control.

With Everything Everywhere All at Once, the Daniels have proven that a low budget does not mean low creativity.
