I think it's safe to say that more is accomplished in one weekend of filming on the set of Do Something With Your Life than the average 40-hour work week. Producer Keith Opatovsky turned his house over to cast and crew this weekend who in turn transformed it into not one but two locations - the home of Mike's Dad (Pop-pop), and younger brother, Chet as well as Lindsey's house ("the one that got away"). Now I know this is a comedy but Keith's kitchen and back porch also saw some family drama this weekend. Watching scenes in a vacuum sends you spiralling into the world of individual characters, wondering just how they got to the place they are in.
 
Makes you think about how the twists and turns of other people's lives really do influence your own. How much so, is really up to us.
While the forecast called for showers, the rain on set did not come from the clouds. First, in her debut feature film performance 8-year old Raine Welsh lit up the steps of Keith's front porch with her talent and birthday girl grin. She provided actor Tom Belding (Mike) with some good notes on his own performance and great all-round entertainment for the crew.
 
After a long Saturday, Sunday saw the return of an old friend and a brief on-set interlude.
This story falls into 3 acts and is best told in pictures. It's also quite silly and in no way an accurate synopsis of the day...except from the part about Andrew Menzies taking a meeting with a bear.

Act 2

This on-set moment brought to you by, Red Rain ;)
Have a great week! |
