I was driving a whale watch excursion boat last year that was filmed for an IMAX feature about the Pacific Northwest/Washington State. They chartered the boat, filled it with people who were told to point and act excited. Repeated close passes overhead, then they saw the Lime Kiln Lighthouse and asked if I could take the boat directly towards that... yep, to a point. Several more close passes, then "Got it!" on the radio.
I asked the assistant director who was on the boat, "What about the whales?"
"Oh, we'll add those in later with CGI."
I think it is playing at the Seattle waterfront - I haven't seen it.
