The “market” exterior set was created in a parking area and all tents and props were brought in. All background players are actors.
[:13] The two men unloading a jeep was shot against greenscreen, lit so that the lighthouse could be added in post.
[:14]The family unloading the car: I framed it so the lawn/house could easily be cut out (there were woods behind) and instead place Los Angeles in post. I also kept the family below the cut-line so post would be faster/easier.
[:16] In the Trio: The girl is shot with a minicrane, and the two men were shot on greenscreen.
[:18] The man was lit on greenscreen knowing we’d put a fake field of Doritos plants behind him in post, maintaining angle of light direction.
[:18] The kids were shot lying on greenscreen, from above on a crane with real movement at first blending into animation.
[:24] Final shot was also greenscreen, but shot for an ‘interior’ lighting scheme.
