Pictures from the final day of shoot

Today was the third and final day of the three day shoot. When I woke up in the morning I was worried that the shoot was going to get postponed till tomorrow since today was declared a national mourning day after the assassination of the politician yesterday. Luckily it wasn’t canceled and we went ahead with the shoot.

We started shooting late at around 10AM today because it took a lot longer to setup the market then expected. Once everything was setup it just looked really great and full of colors and colorful characters. I took a ton of pictures which you can check by clicking the link below.

Tomorrow morning I have to attend the color grading of the film in the morning and that should take a few hours. Once I am done I have to quickly rush to my hotel, pick up my luggage and head off to the airport to come back to Kuwait. I can’t wait to get back.

    The politician assasinated does have a name, Walid Eido, I wanted to see you doing this in Kuwait if it was declared a national moarning day. Unfortunately cause its lebanon who cares for just another killing.

    cool pics.. how do you guys gather the audience i mean the actors.. do they have to undergo some kind of auditions or stuff…?

  10. Mark says:

    garga: no it should be on a lot sooner then that

    aatif: there is a special casting agency the production house deals with. the director then brings us his recommendations based on their acting ability (if their role needs acting) and then we choose from the recommended.

    so u re-created an indian market!

    looks pretty cool, for a second i was fooled that i was really viewing pics of an indian market :P

    but one question… instead of flying down to india, why did u do this in lebanon…???

    The “hindi script” makes no sense. It is just jibberish, with most of it not even hindi letters.

    Where did you guys get the indians from?

    Good commercial though. Way above that expected from Kuwait. The commercials are getting better day by day.

    the hindi script is not supposed to be gibrish. its actually different names of seafood on sale. that scene didn’t make the cut.
