It’s Halloween, so pull out your sage, salt, and white candles! Today we’re talking about something truly spooky…our top 3 scariest moments on set! If you’ve been around production of any kind, you know things pretty much never go as planned. And sometimes, those “fun developments” can scare the pants off of you. Here are three very different kinds of “scary” that struck our sets like a witch’s evil spell. How did we survive? Listen now…if you dare!
Production Can Be a Nightmare
There are very few endeavors that have as many moving parts as producing a TV or film project. Working with a crew of 20 or 200? Either way, you’re trying to manage very different personalities, share a creative vision, keep on schedule, and above all, avoid disaster.
But sometimes, no matter what you do, you end up in a living nightmare. One day you’ll laugh about it (maybe.) As we’ve learned over the years running Joke Productions together, there’s no telling what evil may lurk just around the corner!
Just some of the “spooky” we’re sharing today:
* Demon dogs in the workplace* Using your crew as a blockade in the middle of downtown L.A.* Trying to stay calm while hanging up on network executives* Freaking out when lawyers tell you to ignore your basic human instincts* How to create a homemade sauna that probably won’t kill you* And…what to do if a practicing witch claims you’ve been paralyzed by a ghost (happened to Biagio!)
So perform a little spell of protection, toss that salt over your shoulder, and listen now! Happy Halloween!
