Finding the right fit for a comedic role can be a challenging endeavour, let alone when you need them to jump into the ocean. Over the span of just 8 days, we efficiently secured 4 diverse locations for production, sourced 2 actors and background, supervised the build of an office set and tackled our routine production logistics. When we set foot on set the production was well oiled and organized, inviting the smiles and laughs that followed.
That enduring value
