Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor

Their written and directed productions are known for being dark, edgy, bizarre, and over-the-top, while maintaining a small budget.

Taylor commented on this technique while filming Crank: "The Rollercam footage was really the most dramatic and technically challenging of the movie.

Neveldine commented on the use of these cameras: "We can put these cameras in places that people haven’t and we can put 10 of them in places where people haven't...And one of the things it allows us to do is we're doing this moving bullet time camera rig where we take 8 HF-10s and we put it on a light weight piece of speed rail and I can roller blade and skate around Jason Statham as he’s blasting down the street with a weapon and capture just rad images.

"[3] During the filming of Crank: High Voltage, Neveldine and Taylor shot over 279 hours of footage during its 31 days of production.

[4] Neveldine and Taylor's third directorial effort, Gamer was the second feature film (following Che) to be shot with special hand-held Red One digital cameras.
