As for the more action-oriented shots, visual-effects supervisor Peter Crosman (Broken Arrow) says a blue bag filled with a combination of buckshot and sawdust stood in when the oft-frightened Scooby jumped onto various characters. "We called it the blue peanut," says Crosman. "We would basically throw this large thing at Matthew." One of the most difficult parts, according to the actors — who ranged from the 5'3'' Gellar to the 6'4'' Lillard — was getting the sight lines correct. "What's odd about cameras is perception, so where I'm looking at Scooby would not be where Freddie would look," says Gellar. "With my height, [the eye line] was sort of at Matt Lillard's waist. So I spent months staring at his crotch; Matt's package and I are very well acquainted." Ruh-roh, Fred. --CC
