I worked on JAIL BREAK - THE PACT in Peterborough earlier this month. It was a pleasure working with director Alex Dunlop, Unit Manager Pat Maitland, Production Assistant Melissa Munroe, Wardrobe Amy and Make-up Natasha Nikolic and especially my co-star Ray Henderson.
I work as a background performer (extra) in movies and TV shows. I'll take you behind the scenes of these productions for insight on how they are made. As most productions have non disclosure contracts that prohibit taking of photographs on set, of costumes or characters, do not expect to see pictures of anyone.

Total Recall remake to be filmed at Pinewood Toronto’s waterfront studio
The article Total Recall remake to be filmed at Pinewood Toronto’s waterfront studio in the Toronto Star is good news for those of us that work in the film industry in Toronto. Everyone that works in the Toronto film industry knows there has not been many film or TV productions here for a few years now. All of this is about to change thanks to Pinewood Studios.

Sundays at Tiffany's
Is a made for TV movie/TV pilot based on the book Sundays at Tiffany's. It is set in New York and is a woman and her childhood experiences of separation, betrayal and true love. As usual, this blog posting is not about the movie. It is about the production of the film - specifically about my experiences while working on the set.

Alphas
Working on the set of Alphas was great as I have not worked in about two months. I ran into a number of friends from previous sets so it was like a class reunion. From what I gathered, Alphas is about an elite team of FBI agents that go after super villains like Ghost. It is a pilot for a new TV series. It was a beautiful sunny day to be working outside, not too warm but a bit windy. My role was a passer-by (businessman) was perfect as I was comfortable in my suit.
