Whose house was it? How did you get the house? Because I thought the house was excellent. And just as someone that’s producing low budget stuff, I’m looking at, I mean, the production design of the house was excellent. The walls were all painted, very well decorated. Did you have to do a lot of production design on the house or it came?
Erik Bork
I mean, it was 90-95% the way it is. We did have an amazing set decorator who came in and did some changes. There was only one location where there’s a room in the house that you wouldn’t believe is the same house, like his apartment with where he lives with his grandmother is also in that. Yeah. But it looks very different. It’s more like a man cave and then set decorator turned it into like a place where you can imagine an older woman might live with her grandson. So, but mostly it was what it was. And it was a friend’s house. And the person that co-produced it with me, Diane Kerman, very experienced line producer, she, she recommended this house. And I knew it was a great house. But I was thinking, well, these are like, these are people that are around, you know, late 20s single, they wouldn’t live in a big suburban house. And she came up with a permit. What if she’s house sitting at her aunt’s house during COVID while her people had weird living rain during COVID. The aunt was in Europe and like, she’s house sitting and it’s like she just had a breakup and moved out with her boyfriend. So now she’s living in this house sitting nice house. And she’s like stuck there during COVID in a bubble with the other person’s son, but she doesn’t really know that well, and trying to get to know him. And so I was like, okay, talked me into it. So worked out really well.
