How do child actors exposed to gruesome scenes (like murder on a horror film) not get traumatized/PTSD?
In: Other
Simple answer: they aren’t.
My son recently finished filming some scenes for a horror show and although his character witnessed a murder, he actually didn’t because they used various camera tricks and split the takes up so when it’s all put together, it looks like he was there.
I imagine for some scenes this simply isn’t possible, but so far all of the things he’s been in have been done this way. The union is very very picky about things like this.
