CALIFORNIA - TV Production: That's A Wrap

And that's a wrap folks.  2 weeks, 3 commercials, minimal sleep and so many fun and new experiences.  I thoroughly enjoyed my first full length film production and I am still in sort of a haze returning home and adjusting back to normal life.

California decided to embrace the "storm" scene of our 3rd commercial and torrentially downpour for our last few days.  It literally rained all day, every day....but we made it work and my hunter wellies got A LOT of use.
wellies!

taking shelter in "video village"

yes, i wore a poncho skirt. monsoon is not a understatement


It was amazing to see the prop department build such an incredible set.  Every inch of ground was covered in debris and was an impressive recreation of massive storm damage...








After two nights of shooting from 4pm - 4am in the pouring rain we were all ready to head home for the holidays.  We had the best cast of Army National Guard soldiers and I was so happy to get to know each of them.

The final night was a celebration dinner in downtown Santa Monica at Sushi Roku, yum!  Besides amazing sushi, a highlight was another celebrity sighting: Bill & Suki from True Blood

A BIG Thank YOU to everyone for making this production happen - California Army National Guard, Original Film Productions, Director - Mikael Solomon, and of course the LM&O team.  We had the best partners & I am thrilled to deliver a top-notch product to our client.

SO happy to be home for the holidays....Christmas Eve dinner tonight with the family. LOVE. xoxo
