Participants repeatedly characterized filming as structured around improvisation, [[long take]]s, and a set culture that encouraged risk-taking. McKay described a method of explicitly permitting unsuccessful attempts to improve spontaneity. Performers and crew members described the atmosphere as supportive and playful, with [[Rob Riggle]] and Adam Scott emphasizing that the core creative team made supporting actors feel included and able to experiment. The same working style also affected the schedule and logistics. [[Ken Jeong]] described spending hours filming a very short scene. Steenburgen recalled a car scene that ran through the day without completing a full take, and Matheson described long periods of continuous rolling that delayed access to the set for urgent wardrobe needs. White said there was [[Assembly cut|assembly footage]] that ran for hours, and McKay said the production [[Exposure (photography)|exposed]] a very large amount of [[film stock]], which reportedly measured over 1.5 million feet before editing. White recalled [[Kodak]] acknowledging the volume with a celebratory gesture during the shoot. |
