Crime 101

Crime 101 (Feature film) — a polygraph examiner and lie detector hired for film. On-set consultant with Halle Berry and Chris Hemsworth, with our own instruments used in shot.

Lie detector hire for film usually means the analogue rig. Ink on rolling paper photographs in a way a laptop screen cannot — it fills a frame, it moves, and an audience recognises it instantly without a line of dialogue explaining what they are looking at.

Our own instruments were used in shot, which removes the usual problem of a hired prop that does not run. When the camera pushes in on the chart, the pens are writing a real trace rather than a loop, and the paper feed matches the pace of the scene.
