Parking Coordinator needed...
Leo Driver: I was born for this
Fake name/Alias used to be easily found and known in the industry.
@@NavidVasei is it really a thing?
If you search for Leo Driver, you see he has worked for 20+ movies and shows as ”parking coordinator” / transport..he’s basically the valet guy you call to drive/park cars for projects..
On facebook you will see many other people use Driver as lastname so people know they are ”drivers” - the ones i saw drive trucks and work with cars.
I myself know people who give a different last name so people remember them more easily.
@@NavidVasei Wow. Thats quite cool. Nice marketing trick
@@NavidVasei certainly stands out more than another David Johnson or something! Plus any Leo Driver in film credits, especially in that role, is much more likely to be actually this same guy. I never really thought about it before you said, but.. actors do it, why wouldn't other types of production crew? Very cool.
Logistics of Making a Wendover Video With no Planes
That would actually be interesting
@@starkillersspace5474 That would be... Half as interesting
@@Capumaraca You saw the opportunity and you took it. I like it.
It’s a miracle!
More videos about planes please, planes are awesome!
Location manager: Sees his name focused on in the video
*single tear slides down cheek*
James Lin
2:58 Anyone else think this was a perfect time for Wendover to mention Edinburgh’s airport?
Im dissapointed tbh he didnt mentioned it,he didnt say the word plane durin whole video...Wooow
“Reach the end of a movies credits”
*Me instantly forgetting who camera man no.4 and tree no.3 was*
Oscar Horsey three *
@@karolz9234 tree*
I love watching the credits because (1) they sometimes have great names, (2) sometimes I see the same names crop up again, which is nice, and (3) sometimes I see names such as von Hohenzollern.
@@klobiforpresident2254 Do you really? Or do you just want to wait for the extra scene like the rest of us do?
C'mon, stop pretending.
Luis some of us like’s too find our name and friends names as VFX Artist.
11:01 This guy got his start by working as DiCaprio's chauffeur
Ah you mean Brad pitt
How are you in charge of parking and your last name is Driver.
@@DrunKao lucky its not Parker.
Fucking tomato bitch
@@DrunKao they often change last names to their professions, so he probably was not born driver unless his parents were also drivers for hollywood
I work in the film industry in the production department and the amount of info he got right is mind boggling. Like it takes years as a filmmaker to know all this data. Great job 👏🏽
Leo Driver is now a world famous parking coordinator. A documentary about his endeavors and journey will be made and put on curiosity stream and I will watch it.
If something like that ever gets uploaded to Curiosity Stream I will seriously subscribe to it
I'm seriously curious now. I would genuinely watch this.
Another fun fact, the list of names in the credits doesn't actually list everyone who worked on the project. For example, IT work is often on the chopping block when it comes to who's names show up in the credits. They'll list the main person in charge but they'll often have their own staff to assist. Due to the traditions and regulations studios follow in terms of union regulations, Academy junk, or just the fact that the assistant to the assistant of IT doesn't have a Hollywood agent on their side. Those names don't show up in the credits.... I know this because I technically worked on Avengers 2 for a day doing IT work but my name definitely didn't get put in the credits due to my very low rank on the totem poll.
sue
Wendover not mentioning planes? This isn't the real Wendover, this is Noobmaster69
the issue is that they used portals instead of airplanes
He does mention an airport though at 5:35, does that count?
Genuinely thought he was about to talk about planes at the end when he said "any Wendover Productions fan knows..."
More like GroundPound6090
is it TheLegend27?
I was sure there was going to be a bait and switch and you'd just start breaking out plane facts at any point.
Nobody will believe that the guy that makes plane videos is a mountain biker, but I am and I watch your channel and the rest of MTB-tube a ton :D
@@Wendoverproductions Well I didn't see that coming! I have t say it's one of the coolest unintended compliments. Maybe we'll see some bike related WP/HAI related content at some point!
wow
nice to see you here
Thx
Love the fact that the parking coordinator is called Leo Driver
Imagine if it was Leo Parker though...
@@marcbennett9050 imagine if it was Peter Parker...
Imagine if it was Adam driver
Wendover Productions video that is not about airplanes
*Mentions airplanes anyway*
Perfectly balanced as all things should be
John Paul Quevedo this does put a smile on my face
*Wendover doesnt mention planes*
Impossible
John Paul Quevedo
shut the fuck up lmao we fucking get it he talks about airplanes.
Simmer down
If there is anything that moves a certain distance, plane comes in as an option.
Fun fact: they actually filmed it in deep space. Not all stuntman survived tho.
RIP to all those lost in space filming, they will be missed
The hardest choice often requires the strongest will.
Did you do it?
Yes.
What did it cost?
Stuntmen
F
He's just this guy, ya know
Nobody is gonna comment on the fact that he watched the entire credits for this video.
It's a marvel movie, most people watch the end credits
@@Stevenverx most people wait through the end credits waiting for an extra scene afterwards*
biodude zerothree and after the end scene there are more credits that the people usually don’t watch
@@me-it9jn and after those credits there's oftend another end scene.
so yes people watch all of the credits of marvel movies. It's actually quite interesting to see how many people work doing so many different jobs (also a lot of those people have funny names)
I ALWAYS watch the entire credits after EVERY movie I see in the cinema as a way to pay respects and admiration and thankfulness for the great movie I have seen
Thankyou so much for making this video. I work as a location manager and our department isn't something that is often discussed. It's STRESSFUL AF haha thankyou for drawing attention to us 👊
10:34 i am disappointed you didn't say it was an absolute win.
This isn't HAI, there he would've.
But still; these are confusing times.
*both Marvel and St. Alb's benefit*
Hulk: I see this as an absolute win!
Parking manager‘s last name is “Driver”, what a coincident
Is it? Or is it FATE?
Should be Parker
Had this been a HAI video, I'm sure he wouldn't have let that pass
I thought we're about to ignore this fact collectively
Downey's chef's name is Tamie Cook, too.
The New Asgard scenes featured an Irn Bru bottle relatively prominently placed beside Thor, as a nice little nod to the fact that they had been filmed in Scotland. Not noticeable to most, but to Scottish people you couldn’t miss it. 😂
I work as a camera operator, and like to think that I know enough about how complex (and EXPENSIVE) film production logistics is, but the moment I saw the title of this video, I was willing to get a brand new education on the topic.
As someone who works in the office of these logistic nightmares, thank you for showing even a tiny bit of what it's like to put together any kind of screen production. Even ads have many of these roles.
90% of comments about Leo driver lol
To have a Parking Coordinator named ''Leo DRIVER'' ... It's almost like that guy was born to get this kind of jobs 😂
"baby driver"
I had a music tech tutor called Mike Tester... He was a drummer though.
Wouldn't it be Leo Parker?
11:01 oh my god the parking coordinator's name is Driver
So THAT's why I didn't get the job
@@austinheath9739 You should be a doctor in Texas
I don't know why so many people are mentioning this. It would be funny if his name was Leo Parker. Or Leo Coordinator. But he wasn't a driver.
@Samuel Maurer yes and my name is Leo Party Animal
First The funny thing is that he was. That position also functions as Valet and he’s responsible for driving a lot of the vehicles and parking them and getting them in the right locations. That being said even if it wasn’t it would be funny, you’re a perfect example of a glass half empty narcissist that likes to shit on anything because of your overwhelming hatred for yourself.
It was so funny watching endgame. I recognised St. Abbs straight away and almost shouted out in the theatre.
Man, this was awesome. I wish it was longer exploring start to finish production line for a movie like endgame. Great stuff! Can always count on Wendover.
10:57
Hiring Manager: this is the MCU parking manager position...
Leo: yes
Hiring Manager: okay and your name is?
Leo: Leo, Leo Driver...
Hiring Manager: ...YOU'RE HIRED!
Lolz
He was born to be DiCaprio's chauffeur.
The hiring manager was called Robert Jobs
11:00 A parking coordinator named Leo DRIVER. Perfect.
4:33 Goddamn Wendover it's 10 am in CDT you can't be showing me THAT this early lmao
it added greatly to the video
Source please lmao
@@baguettex5127 yes please
need sauce
I was thinking the same thing!
7:12 This is not atlanta, this is a birdseye view of London, heathrow airport can be seen south with the river thames aswell.
Yes, you are correct. He mentions that this is Pinewood Studios which is correct, but shows their UK location, not their Georgia location.
Blame the animator, not Sam
I bet Sam will mention the mistake in his next video where he mentions mistakes
There went 15 minutes of my life - my parents live near Pinewood Atlanta and I've never seen that cloverleaf near it XD
I live in a northern town where Hallmark comes yearly to film Christmas movies.... in July. Each year while the temp is 30 degrees C Christmas decorations are hung, and the streets are dressed with blankets of fake snow. It looks surprisingly real. I still cant believe I was in a Christmas movie with James Brolin.
I have been watching the video for 30 seconds and there hasn't been a single mention of planes.
wait for it
I am inevitable.
They never use a real plane
I'm starting to think this is the wrong channel. Hmmm.
Parking Coordinator is called Leo Driver.. They knew what their job would be from birth
DonutBatman I mean my dentist’s last name is “Smiley” 😂
When he was saying " any long time wendover viewer by this point" I was sure he was going to talk about planes.
7:08
"The film studio was outside Atlanta Georgia"
*Zooms out to a bird's eye view of London*
Tut tut tut.
Other than that nice, quality video
2 Pinewood studios = why?
Please do more film/TV production behind the scenes, this was awesome!
Disney: "super-magic-scifi-mega-action-thriller"
Wendover: "aeroplanes"
I worked on these films and I can tell you first hand, you barely scraped the tip of the tip of the iceberg. They built an inventory specific specialty Home Depot on the backlot of our main sound stages at Pinewood Studios in Fayetteville GA just for the production to have access to an array of materials for multiple departments from set construction to rigging. That's just another fraction of a fraction in the logistics of making these films.
It's actually amazing how much effort you guys put into making such content for us!
I just love the amount of research that goes into these videos.
I never thought that I would land on a video about the logistics side of movie production
So glad I did though because this is actually very interesting!
Fun Fact of the day:
The last Jason Bourne movie was supposed to shoot in Athens Greece but due to bureaucracy and lack of a movie lissing department in Greece, they reconstructed Syntagma Square in a city in Spain and shot the whole action scene there instead.
Do you have a link for that? That's wild
@@andrewk9267 hollywood.greekreporter.com/2015/09/22/greece-in-hollywood-jason-bourne-runs-through-athenian-streets-in-tenerife/
It's really cool to see behind the screen and focus on all the people that make this possible. They usually are only mentioned as numbers or news articles detailing abuses of authority
Next time you watch a Marvel film, look for the name: *Ryan Potter* in the credits. He's in every single Marvel film and you can see his progression in job positions through the films
You can see him @ 9:27 under the Marvel Studios category
Is that you?
Credits of the movie should be replaced by this video should, so that audience can realize & appreciate all the hard work done by each person
This guy can make any topic seem epic😂 "The Logistics of Filming Avengers"👌
I would love if you made more videos about the logistics of movie/theatre/entertainment production. Soooo fascinating and you did a wonderful job exposing it all
I’ve been to st Abbs and I didn’t even know Endgame was filmed there until I went to the visitor centre! The village was absolutely stunning and I can really see why they chose the spot.
I'm a producer at Location Services Asia, and I vouch that the information provided in this video is 100% correct.
This was so interesting. Id imagined that the logistics of movie productions are complex, but to get such a good overview of what it really is was amazing. Thank you
All of a sudden I really really love Wendover 4:33
Sauce?
This channel has grown so much and it only gets better with each release! Great stuff! 👌🏻
its mind blowing...the number of staff they employ, the level of coordination on a movie set to get things done so better than the UN has managed in all its existence.
See you on Trending Wendy!
lol
Your verified with 20 likes ?
Logistics: Exists
Marvel: This is an Avengers level threat
When you realize that they actually used a whole village only to show NoobMaster69
How much did Disney pay you to not talk about planes?
Yes
Everything
Well he still talked about airports, does that count?
Nobody:
Not even Galactus:
Wendover: Planes, take it or leave it
1:20 I thought I could see that guy's crack for a second.
Thanos is amazing, he wanted to make the world a better place. I respect him
Supreme leader! You are thanos!
Oh thank you supreme leader. Your greatness cannot be sold short. 😫👌
Why are you on every CZcams comment section???
Lucky Lucian Why do you ask that same question over and over to me and Avery?
@@gordok167 😡👉 👈😡
endgame: *costs 360 million dollars*
thanos: a small price to pay for salvation
This was super interesting and answered both questions I had and questions I did not even think about, thank you!
Lençóis Maranhenses is one of the most beautiful places in the world and, in my opinion, the most beautiful place in Brazil. The fact that it appeared, even if not directly, in two Avengers films brings me so much joy.
Hard to get any work done with Pym Particles Productions II LLC, they ain't gotta explain shit.
Looks like a shell company created by marvel
Quantum.. something something... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Did no one else catch this?!
“Parking Manager: Leo DRIVER” ;)
EDIT: literally everyone noticed it!
Apparently every second commenter noticed this...
The SFX department is ‘Sound Effects’ as stated in the video, but ‘Special Effects’. Practical effects essentially, anything from shaking a stationary car to make it look like it’s moving, to blowing up entire sets
I don't think I can possibly wrap my head around all the influencing that led to the final product. Story affecting the set, the set affecting shooting days, shooting days affecting actors schedules, schedules affecting training, so on and so forth. I find it to be a miracle that things this big budget happen at all
Who else isn't thinking about the way wendover referred the real engineering channel as "the Irish engineering guy"
Can't believe I watched almost 13 minutes of end movie credits.
This video makes me like MCU movies even more, each year they have tried to film in more than just a set like the avengers facility or space and have each year filmed in more places making me really wonder how they do this consistently with such consistency of post and finished product synching up its truly amazing!
Very interesting documentary! Great to see the work of the people whose names appear for only a few seconds in the credits is valued this way :)
Please make a vid why Tomas Cook has collapsed!
doomstand doom
You should check out Bright Sun Films channel on CZcams.
His most popular video series are ‘Abandoned’ and ‘Bankrupt’.
The Bankrupt series has already covered multiple airlines: Pan Am, TWA, and WOW Air. The Thomas Cook business implosion would be right up his alley.
He already did bro
No one:
Wendover: The Logistics of Avengers beating Thanos
Wait, Nebula sounds amazing. Thats such a great idea. I'd love to see more CZcamsrs get involved with that.
Fun fact: I've had to get a Carnet once.
Less fun: actually dealing with getting a Carnet.
Although this video is not about aeroplane 60 percent people are talking about it..
That's our love for wendover production♥️♥️
Thank you once again for providing such informative content!! Always learning something new with your videos!
My favourite story of location scouts and managers having a tough time is the one where they asked a small local flight school how much it would cost for them to shut down for a few days. The owners nervously said "$30... no $50,000!" in the most obvious "I just made up a number hoping you would just write the check"
They did not end up filming there.
Now do Mysterio Team logistics.
From EMP generator to cape steamer.
"That Irish engineering guy" am I detecting some shade?
Lord of the Rings was by far the most impressive logistics and program of all time. The shot all three movies at the same time, in 18 months
Heyyy, Production Coordinator here! Makes me very proud and happy you are shedding light on us, - not "behind the scenes" - but behind the scenes of those behind the scenes! :D
Marvel: We'll figure out how to make this work
Whatever it takes.
So Noobmaster69 was one of the residents of St. Abbs
Mind blowing 🤯
All that CGI/Head pasting they tried out with The First Avenger really helped with Scheduiling conflicts as the series progressed.
godzillion vids and articles on Endgame already, u still managed to create smth fresh and valuable noone said before. we love u
9:32
Pym particles production
COINCIDENCE, I THINK NOT.
As it's "Pym Particles Production II" my guess is that it was the Ant-Man & The Wasp production crew. They have a tendency to make custom business entities for films (part of the Hollywood Accounting).
Any body know the movie being shot at 4.36, for scientific reasons...
4:12 gotta spray down the street for that cinematic nighttime shot
Fantastic video!! I could have watched an hour long video about this topic. Would be cool to have a video about more details in regards to filming, such as how the actual filming takes place, how they shoot each scene, how special effects are added etc.
4:31 anyone know who’s legs those are? for film making purposes
I'm glad I'm not the only scumbag here lol
7:15 "greater atlanta area"
Shows picture of Greater London
Towards the end about the Curiosity Stream: “That Irish Engineer Guy.” Lol damn... 😂
Oh man. I wish you would do a video every day. Love watching every episode, yet to find one video of yours that is boring. Thank you.
When Thanos snapped his fingers, half the production crew died.
When Sam snapped his fingers, half of interesting things died.
@@waldofelix29 Who's Sam?
The SF production company was PYM particle productions
I'm a photogrpahy producer based in New Zealand and I can say this video is pretty accurate. Of course our projects only last for about 2-3 weeks instead of months/years, but yeah! Awesome video.
This video should be shown to movie pirates. It really describe in detail the amount of work for a single movie to be delivered.
4:35 uhh
