Surprising Green Screen Photos That Show How Hollywood Actually Works

10. Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince

If Hollywood skips a flying scene, it’s hardly giving audiences an exclusive behind-the-scenes look. Daniel Radcliffe must have had a blast pretending to glide and swipe through the air during his Harry Potter days. Can you imagine the thrill of simulating flight? It’s probably similar to hopping on one of those coin-operated rides you find outside a convenience store—but with way more wind machines and cinematic magic

Those rides might give you a taste of adventure, but nothing compares to the high-tech setups Hollywood uses to create those jaw-dropping aerial moments. Speaking of iconic flying scenes, who could forget the gravity-defying action in The Matrix? It’s a perfect example of how Hollywood turns the impossible into something unforgettable. What other movies have made flying look so effortless and cool? Stay tuned for more on that.
