s death: Draven first enters the apartment after digging himself out of his grave: footage of Lee walking through an alley in the rain was digitally composited into the scene where he walks through the doorway. Computer technology added drops of water to the door frame to make the water on his back not seem out of place. The shot of Draven falling from the window was made by digitally compositing Lees face (complete with simulated blood) onto a body double. The scene where Draven puts on his make-up was filmed using a double. The face in the smashed mirror was Lees, computer-altered to fit the shards. The image of Draven walking towards the window with the crow on his shoulder was a double with Lees face added during lightning flashes. When Sarah visits the apartment, we never see Dravens face as it is a double.
