Confidence Bay

Carried Away was the first feature film to use the world's first mobile high-definition edit suite, Confidence Bay, during the filming process. The film was shot tapeless on the Red One and Confidence Bay transferred all the data from the camera, synchronized all audio and video, created dailies, and assembled a rough cut of the film on locations spanning Texas, Arizona, and California. A 90-minute rough cut of the film was shown to the cast and crew at the wrap of the film.

Once filming was completed, Confidence Bay parked at Dockweiler State Beach in Los Angeles, CA where the majority of the film was edited. The film was picture locked only a month after the film wrapped. [3]

Sir Leigh Teabing, a noted British Grail historian, tells them that the actual Holy Grail is explicitly encoded in Leonardo da Vinci's wall painting The Last Supper.
