How can you film a woman giving birth when the camera angle has not shifted?
In Big Momma's House(2000) we see a woman giving birth to a baby.
The camera angle does not shift at all during the scene, or very little at least and a baby is filmed coming out of the woman.
In movies like this, how is a woman giving birth to a live baby filmed when the camera angle has not shifted at all?
Best Answer
I believe this is the clip you're talking about:
Your assertion that the camera angle does not shift at all is wrong. There's several dozen jump-cuts and camera angles there.
We don't actually see the baby coming out of the woman at all. There's a bunch of cuts and people yelling, then someone's holding a baby. We never actually see it emerge.
So I think your memory of the film may be a bit off. I think you're remembering things that were only implied.

How do you film your birth?
Vanessa was excited by the opportunity to perform the scene as it would occur in an actual home birth. After only one rehearsal to block the scene, the actors and crew would just have to see where the moment would take them, Shia LaBeouf playing Martha's husband and Molly Parker portraying the fill-in midwife Eva.Is the birth scene in pieces of a woman real?
After offering words of encouragement, Martha's midwife (played by Molly Parker) suggests that they move to the tub.woman giving birth to baby in hotel 😰😱😱
