Behind The Scenes At The Rally

Posted by Suzanne on 14 October 2009 | 0 Comments

Now this Family vs. Family Challenge was a huge endeavor that involved a cast of...well, tens, really. Not including the bystanders who participated all over town. But logistically, it FELT like thousands.

We had a crew of about 60 working that day; we had to be prepared in case the teams split up, so we had a total of 7 camera teams as well as chase drivers for each of the crews. We had an advance team whose job it was to stay ahead of the action and make sure that things were set at each of the locations. Let me tell you, at the end of the day, it wasn't just the families who were completely wiped, we were, too.

People ask me what it was like and the best answer I have is "It was the most." The most challenging, the most terrifying, the most exhilarating, the most fun I've ever had working on any project anywhere. I think it would be fun to make it a yearly event, actually. Anyone interested?
