TUWOPS: Day Thirteen

Thirteen days down, two to go. We’re in our final location, which is a gorgeous Coach House that’s very… 70’s architecture. Check out the shower in the pic below with our AD Mark Huisman:


We got this location through a rental agency that usually rents to producers/directors/stars coming to town to shoot. This place screams group orgies. Seriously, if you took a red-light through this place it would look like a Jackson Pollock painting.

So we’re here for the last two days shooting the ‘heart’ of the film. Today was especially interesting because almost all of the stuff was shot by our actors Kris and Mary as it’s meant to be home movie footage. It was even more fun because it was a simulated Christmas morning. Tried as she could, our production designer Meaghan couldn’t find a Christmas web-radio stream that worked so that we could get a little more in the spirit. See below, Anthony Grani, our fearless producer, indeed in the Christmas spirit:


Tip of the Day: We had to fog out some windows to hide the extremily green trees. Spray deodorant works perfectly, although it pollutes and makes the place stink and the crew cough.

Also, fancy expensive locations have awesome toilet paper.

So. Stills.

A lovely Meet-Cute between Kris & Mary:


I'm going to leave it a mystery what Paul Lee is doing here:

And last but not least, the brilliant Aron Tager as Dr. Max Henreid:

  1. hey man cool blog, great idea.

    looks like lots of fun.

    We had this bit for our last kitchen video where the 'fridge' was a cooler kept outside a window. Couldn't think of a good way to disguise the obvious greenery and sun outside so we figured we'd scrap it til winter.
