This fun series was written in-house at Global Television, Vancouver, it was produced in-house at Shaw Media in Toronto by several producers, directed by Sandra Enns-Arnell and it all came together very quickly and seamlessly! So seamlessly, in fact, that we ended up doing five :30 second spots in one day. The last spot was done in :30 minutes, thanks to an ambitious and in the end, heroic DP.
A Complete Morning with Liza Fromer
Muscle Car
These spots were a hoot. Liza Fromer was a total pro. Someday I hope to be able to add the actual writers name to the credits. There was also an alternative version with them putting on 5 point harnesses. Very funny.
Coffee
Rebecca Wood is one of my favourite go to comedy actors. You can see why.
Towel
Liza Fromer did some great acting. And no, he wasn’t really naked.
Shirt
This spot was added last minute, believe it or not, because we found someone that we really wanted to cast, and we weren’t sure the toilet humour in the last spot would fly.
Toilet
Warning: toilet humour. The actor was great. And the DP captured this one in 30 minutes. How rare is it that a DP says, with 30 mins left in the day, “Let me try to get that last spot for you. I can do it!” That was the super-heroic DP, Jason George. And I have been super-impressed with him ever since.
