2007.08.07: Mixed Blessings TV Series shoot

I ended up on�the set�of "Mixed Blessings" as an extra placed�by Betty Maxwell of Serendipity Talent Management. Ironically, I was playing the character of a photographer on set and in lieu of prop cameras and an actor playing a photographer the production got someone who shoots for a living with a bunch of gear that's a little more than merely functional. I managed to snap a few shots. The show is co-written and�directed by�Ric Beairsto.

Director of Photography: A. Jonathan Benny

2nd Camera Assist: William Minsky�This photo is bigger than the rest because I screwed up a setting while processing and now I am too lazy to go back and fix it.

Sound mixer: Gerry Clarke

1st Camera Assist: Dave Luxton

Director/Co-writer: Ric Beairsto

Art direction/Set Decoration: Rachel Livingstone

Special Effects Supervisor: Geoff Bacchus (not pictured). Here, a special effects guy is attaching a long plastic bag to a commercial paint dryer. Later, SPFX will use a blow torch to strategically place holes in the bag through a path in the forest and smoke from a fog generator will be fed into the blower to fog the scene in a controlled manner.
