Kapanlagi.com - The process of shooting the superhero film SATRIA DEWA GATOTKACA was supposed to start in April. However, due to the outbreak of the coronavirus at that time, followed by the Large-Scale Social Restrictions (PSBB) announced by the government, the plan was postponed.

After waiting for months, last Saturday (8/6/2020), Hanung Bramantyo as the director started the shooting process on the first day in Yogyakarta. The feelings of this father of six children were mixed when he was back behind the camera.

"(Being able to shoot again) I feel touched but tense because this pandemic has no guidelines. I had to synchronize the schedule of the casts and crew because there were blunders, but eventually it could be overcome. During the shooting, I said, 'Is this for real?'," said Hanung in a press conference session via Zoom on Thursday (8/13/2020).

1. Health Protocols Are Not Difficult

Considering the condition has not fully recovered, the filming of SATRIA DEWA GATOTKACA follows the health protocols set by the Indonesian Film Board, referring to the regulations issued by the government. Celerina Judisari, as the producer, was also involved in the preparation.

"We follow the government's regulations. The health protocols do not make it difficult for the production house to produce. Everything has been considered, everything can be done," said Ayie, the woman who is familiarly called Ayie, in the same session.

2. Cast Stays in One Hotel

During the filming process, all cast and crew members are placed in one hotel that follows the health protocols. If an unwanted situation occurs, the entire team is ready to follow the procedures.

"Rapid tests are mandatory, we have done it several times before filming, even twice in Jogja. Social distancing is difficult, but we believe this team has been quarantined because we stay in one hotel and the hotel follows the health protocol. If someone is affected or reactive later on, we know what to do," concluded Ayie.
