Q: How long did it take to shoot the Juke music sequence? We shot the interior sequences in one day. For that music interior day, we brought everyone together beforehand for a rehearsal: the choreographer, the actors, the dancers, and the music team. That way, we had a solid plan going in. Our night exterior crane pullback was shot on a different night, and the burning roof plate was captured on our final day of photography. So if you break it down that way, the whole sequence came together over three separate days. — Autumn Durald Arkapaw for Motion Picture Association, March 2026
