Netflix dropped Adolescence last week and fans have been gripped by the intense storytelling of a 13-year-old boy accused of murder as well as the show's unique filming styleAdolescence secrets - how they filmed every episode of Netflix show in one take
Adolescence has taken Netflix the world by storm as fans have dubbed it one of the best shows they've seen in a while. The series was released on Thursday and fans have been binging the entire series.
Stephen Graham stars as Eddie Miller, the distraught father of a 13-year-old boy accused of murder. Owen Cooper plays Jamie, who stands accused of the heinous crime. The series looks at the detrimental impact social media and pressures from the digital age can have on young people today.
It explores the current climate of toxic masculinity that distorts boysâ expectations and looks at how misogyny is being fuelled by online communities of young men. Fans praised the series for its important message as well as its stellar performances from the actors.
They were also shocked to find out that Director Philip Barantini used his signature one-shot approach to film every episode, meaning one camera followed the action continuously for the entire hour. The unique tactic needed a lot of preparation and perfected choreography to pull off.

It was captured on the first of a five-day shoot for the episode. The next episode, set in a school and used 370 extras, used take 13 while the third episode was filmed 11 times before the director was happy with it.
And finally, episode four was perfected on take 16 as the Millers dealt with the realities of their son's situation. In a recent Q&A session, Netflix revealed rehearsals started out small and five-minute blocks were added each time until the actors perfected performing an entire hour-long episode.
Rehearsals saw the cast work through choreography so that the director of photography could plan camera positions and other movements. Sometimes, the crew were seen in the episodes but they blended in as they wore costumes.
One particular scene in episode baffled fans as the camera seamlessly glided from the school to the crime scene. The director revealed to Deadline: "So we strapped a camera to a drone that took off over traffic lights and then suddenly youâre at the murder scene. Emotionally it kicks you in the stomach.
Netflix also explained: âA team attach the camera to a drone, which then flies a distance of 0.3 miles across the site to the murder scene, where it comes down to a camera operator and team of grips who smoothly catch the camera and transition into a close shot of Stephen Graham.â
Stephen, who co-created and wrote the drama with Jack Thorne, recently revealed what inspired the drama. He said "there was an incident in Liverpool, a young girl, and she was stabbed to death by a young boy. I just thought, why? Then there was another young girl in south London who was stabbed to death at a bus stop.
"And there was this thing up North, where that young girl Brianna Ghey was lured into the park by two teenagers, and they stabbed her. I just thought, whatâs going on? What is this thatâs happening?â
