CoGo!
Our shoot with Catherine Zeta-Jones as the Cocaine Godmother for Lifetime TV has finally gone live, with the film’s premier later this month. The only problem with shooting Key Art for TV and Film is that you have to wait months before you can show any of the work.
Last summer we spent several days in Vancouver or should I say, I spent several days in Vancouver, as Leo sadly wasn’t available. Never the less our local crew lead by Marlin stepped up and worked their socks off in the ridiculously short amount of time we had, seeing as we were working on a live set. You begin to dread the sound of the bell on live sets, as everything has to grind to a halt whilst they are shooting. Its then a mad rush to continue lighting the set as soon as they call “cut”. You also learn to hurry up and wait once the set is lit, hoping that the talent is released to you with enough time to capture the required set ups!
Although time was not on our side, Catherine gave us everything she could and more, during these frenetic windows of opportunity. As usual, big thanks to Ilene and the team from Lifetime, Marlin and the VC crew and of course Jess our uber producer.
