| For the opening sequence, where Freddy's hand
attacks the special effects people, we filmed live action
plates using motion control. We shot one clean pass with no
actors and then a second pass with the actors in place and
the operator of the mechanical hand. We used the clean
background plate to digitally remove the operator of the
mechanical hand.
