Quagmire

Rare production dailies and alternate footage from The X-Files.

10 video filesOriginal archive materialPreserved by Boggsfiles

Dailies are the raw, unedited footage recorded during a day of filming. They often include slates, repeated takes, alternate performances, and material that never appears in the finished episode. The production team reviewed them to evaluate performances, coverage, focus, sound, and continuity before the episode was edited.

Two reels, both from the lake: the drive with Queequeg and the dock first, then the motel cabin and the cove. Every take of a scene is gathered here into one video, in the order it appears on the tape, and the slate at the head of each take gives its setup and take number.
