For this film the director Maurizio Ponzi pictured a shot with a collapsed building caused by a structural failure. Set Designer Nino Formica went for a fire department building usually used for firefighters training and added real debris, dropped pieces from the facade and damaged cars all around it.

Throughout the VFX process the block has been extended by adding more levels and further details of the collapsed parts. Besides, a digital matte painting has been added around the block to stage it in the middle of a city. That was essential because the real set was located in a very isolated area. For these shots Gianluca Dentici created the 3D model of the collapsed bulding and supervised all shootings.
