One of the most amazing things about designing this, was shooting out in the middle of the Highlands in January in the freezing rain, sleet snow. They are running, fighting, rolling on the ground, riding horseback, doing all sorts of stunt work.
All of the crew had super deluxe, Hi tech gear on, and they were freezing and wet. But our Highlanders who were dressed as Highlanders, were warm and dry. Out tartan has felted a bit and is quite dense, but is also light enough for our actors to wear when on a small set with a raging fireplace and enormous lighting rigs. On those days, the crew is in shorts.
So it serves us very well.
That is very interesting. I wear my kilt whilst out on the hills from spring through to autumn. I still however wear modern mountaineering clothing on my upper body. What material did you use for actors' base layer (shirts/sarks)?
