The Sets Don't Move. The Cameras Do

The sets look much larger on television. The answer is the sets don't move. The cameras do. But so left to right, let's take the audience POV. Imagine yourself, dear listener, as an audience member in the bleachers on the set of boy meets world. Way over to the left was the Matthew's family living room living room. And then immediately connected to that was the kitchen kitchen and bathroom.

Speaker 1
Yeah,
Speaker 3
they look much larger on television. Yeah. Yeah. The answer is the sets don't move. The cameras do.
Speaker 2
Right. But so left to right, let's take the audience POV. Imagine yourself, dear listener, as an audience member in the bleachers on the set of boy meets world. Way over to the left was the Matthew's family living room living room. Yep. And then immediately connected to that was the kitchen kitchen. And then obviously, the yard,
Speaker 1
the bathroom. The entire left half of the audience's view was the reset. Right.
Speaker 3
Right. Like
Speaker 1
the yard would sort of end in the middle of the
Speaker 3
audience. Right.
Speaker 2
And then there was classroom classroom, which was Turner's classroom. Yeah. I second season. So then Turner's classroom. And then hallway, which was
Speaker 3
a big long set. Big set.
Speaker 2
And that was it. And then
Speaker 3
they would ring in the boys bedroom would be at the very, very end if we ever needed it.
Speaker 2
And so those were called swing sets. And that's because those could swing in and swing out. And then there was extra room where there were other swing sets that could be built to the left or right of the audience. But we would never shoot scenes there in front of the audience. So basically, the only thing we would ever shoot on audience night in front of the audience were those scenes we mentioned that from audience POV, they could see with their eyeballs. Right. And then
Speaker 1
the other. Because the audience is right facing the same direction as the audience would have
Speaker 2
been cafeteria set.
Speaker 1
Exactly. Or whatever swing ended up would also sort of go in there. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The primary view was the living room kitchen kitchen and fiendys backyard. Yeah. Feenys back the backyard ends up being sort of very very middle. Yeah. Which is so funny because it's actually kind of our least
Speaker 2
you said. Yeah. But also kitchen kitchen. Kitchen. Kitchen. Kitchen backyard was kind of the most center. And then classroom you could fully see. And really, you could see mostly I would call partial school hallway, maybe 75%. You wouldn't be really be able to see unless you were in one particular part of the audience, you wouldn't be able to see the ever changing bathroom, fiendys principles office door. Like that door was kind of
Speaker 3
off way to the end.
