Making A Music Video – Day Three

On day three we filmed in a house, a wonderful converted double duplex with great floor space and high ceilings and a nice wide double entrance door, flanked by tall windows letting in plenty of outside light. This was crucial to the original script but ….

Ended up having some trouble with the natural lighting as the weather did not cooperate one bit, a snow storm started all of a sudden, with grey dull skies that no amount of supplemental light could add life to. So the scenario had to be modified a bit as it became quite obvious that nobody could be coming in through the front door as so would the snow, the wind and the cold. It was supposed to be sunny if not quite warm…. Damn Montreal weather… this is SPRING????

My part was the same as it’s been every time: caterer and general gofer. Managed both it seems quite OK.

To be continued the next weekend…..

Making A Music Video – Day Two

More fun today. But it was a long day. I was head-caterer again for quite a lot more people. They still seem to like my food – or else they were really hungry 🙂

Had trouble with parking since we had the Saint Patrick’s Day parade in Montreal and we happened to be filming in a downtown hotel, close to the parade’s route. Longer travel time, longer distances to carry stuff from the car inside and back again.

Ah, what’s a little back pain among friends and all for a good cause?

Beautiful but chilly day, lots of green everywhere … and green beer apparently in abundance 😉
