In the recent Apollo 11 documentary we're shown footage of the mission undertaking a 'trans-lunar injection' burn after having conducted two orbits of the Earth.

According to this article, the film may actually be of Apollo 8 rather than Apollo 11, but I was unable to find any further information on the source. As the TLI burn lasted 6 minutes this may be a collection of still frames condensed to a couple of seconds rather than continuous movie film.

"During the moments showing the translunar injection maneuver — the propulsive push that sent Apollo 11 toward the moon — Miller used a shot from Apollo 8. He hopes to document these liberties and other aspects of the filmmaking process in a production journal." - Interesting. So where was that filmed from? :-)

The "TLI burn" was filmed by the crew of Apollo 9 - an Earth-orbit test of the lunar module. As explained in Scot Manley's video on Youtube, How Did The Apollo 11 Documentary Get Film Of The Upper Stage Ignition?, a fully-fueled Saturn V was required to launch Apollo 9. Since the lunar module was extracted before a "TLI burn", the third stage still had plots of fuel and oxidizer. The mission design was to send the third stage into a higher orbit (and eventually heliocentric) in order to get the stage away from the crew, just in case the left over propellants decided to explode.
