January changes in the studio...

The studio is undergoing some interesting physical changes this month. We've been planning to add more storage for props and wardrobe... and improve the activity flow around the space during the days when we have shoots scheduled. And at the same time, we've opened up an area that could be arranged for more of an "room interior" or "set". There's no doubt that we've been working in a large garage space... with huge double overhead doors at one end and rubber tiled floor... so it takes some work to make a backdrop that looks like a living space. After all, until as late as last year, we were still pushing the one race car left in and out of the room on days when we were shooting... so, of course, it looked and felt like a garage. But... this week we're covering the grey industrial rubber tiles with a dark hardwood floor. That, and some draperies to control the light from the big sliders... and we'll have the background elements of an interior set. And, I might mention, a great party space!

About half way today... goes pretty fast in a big open room!! Hey!! Let's dance!! :))))
