Ep 40: Hijack Director Jim Field Smith + DOP Ed Moore - Building Real-Time Tension Underground

How do you shoot an eight-hour real-time thriller… on a moving underground train? To close Series 4 of TV Makers, Ashley Golder sits down with the co-creator, executive producer and lead director of Hijack, Jim Field Smith, and Director of Photography Ed Moore, to break down exactly how Season 2 was built. From scanning real Berlin U-Bahn trains to constructing a fully hydraulic 360-degree train set in the UK, this episode reveals how one of Apple TV’s most ambitious thrillers was designed, lit and shot. Season 1 trapped audiences at 35,000 feet. Season 2 takes us underground - in real time - for eight relentless hours. In this episode, we cover: • Real-time storytelling and why it’s structurally brutal • Building a fully functioning moving train set • Why “second screen friendly” might be the worst note in modern TV • Virtual production, LED environments and precision lighting• Directing without traditional storyboards • The trust between director and cinematographer at scale • Working with Idris Elba inside a 360-degree practical set This is a deep dive into high-end television craft - from creative ambition to technical execution.
