English term or phrase: Filming at full throttle
This is the title of an article about Martin Scorsese, reference made to the movies he has made and a peer to Steven Spielberg. US english.
The first thing that comes to mind is "Filmando a Toda Marcha" but it doesn't convince me, I'd like to have a better sound to it, with a bit more class.

Explanation:
Es una traducción un poco más libre pero creo que tiene cierta unión con la velocidad y pasión que caracterizan a muchas de las películas de Scorsese.
