"Oh my, I lost my...?"
It's Sunday and we're in Seville, Spain on the
last day of the first leg of a six-city production schedule. On the
way to the airport the protagonist informs me she's lost her
passport and visa. I send the crew on to the next location, in
Texas, stay behind with the actress and leave a message on the
Embassy voicemail about the lost documents. Fortunately, I had made
copies of everyone's passport and visa prior to departing the US,
which was a great help with the Embassy. They issued a special visa
and we left that night for Texas. Meanwhile the crew taped all the
"B-roll "visual pick-up footage" until we arrived and began shooting
the dramatic sequences.
