The Making of Marrying UP

On The Set

My daughter heard it,too and she came running to my room. I am a rockstar in her eyes once again. I went and looked at the beginning of the set building yesterday. We got past the sketches, but I gotta tell you, I held my breath the whole time. It still looks like sticks and straw to me. Or metal and wood, but Mark Sullivan from the SA Film District has a vision. Here's a clip.
