Memoirs of a Movie Stand-in 025

In this episode, I'll explain how a slow director can quickly become unpopular among film crew members. I only talked about that because it was on my mind, but I didn't mean to imply that the director of Promised Land Episode 117 was a slow-working director. In fact, Michael Schultz was very popular among the crew memebrs on our show.

Anyway, let's talk about this particular episode of Promised Land which was filmed in the last part of January 1997.

Memoirs of a Movie Stand-in 024

This time around, I'll talk about a big-time "crossover" episode involving characters from Touched by an Angel and from Promised Land. This episode was called Amazing Grace and it was filmed in late January and early February 1997. It was an "important" episode about racial tension in America. And we got a lot of attention for this big, two-part story. I had a good time working on the show but, in the end, I didn't find it very enjoyable as a viewer. So... I'll tell you more about this in this week's podcast episode.

Memoirs of a Movie Stand-in 023

This week, I'm talking about some of the on-set protocol that you'll find when you work on movies and TV shows. What's a "page count" on a movie set? What are "sides"? What's a "call sheet"? What does the script supervisor mean when she says, "Seven Baker is up..." to the other people on the crew? It's a whole lot of stuff like that on this week's podcast. Enjoy!

Memoirs of a Movie Stand-in 022

In January 1997, we shot an episode of Promised Land called The Collapse. We shot in and around a real mine southeast of Park City, as well as a bunch of sets built by our remarkable Art Department crew. Join me in this podcast episode and I'll tell you all about it.

Also, follow this link for a few behind-the-scenes pictures that I took all by myself on our mine set.
