I wonder, do characters in the soaps currently take all the Covid precautions? Are the pubs closed, everyone wears masks, and stays 2m apart? There have been quite a number of articles on how they have managed to record soap operas. One technique is to use actors'partners for scenes needing close contact, like "snogging". One recent article said that one programme was having a problem so one actor rang his girl friend, who had done some acting, she was taken on as an extra and substituted for the real actress during the close-ups. I wonder if arrangements with Equity have been relaxed or some had to join, they used to be quite strict at one time . My one and only acting scene got around that as it was for a Brazilian production company and I found myself as part of a burial at sea party while we acted as a prop for an Italian emigrant ship to Brazil. About 32 mins in . https://youtu.be/VHupZR-GurE The production was I suppose what we call a docusoap and had huge audiences in South America , the lead actress was a lovely person , could speak four languages and no diva like qualities at all. She was equally happy prop building knocking bits of wood together with a hammer which was another example of the relaxed attitude of the Brazilian production crew. She took a shine to a younger colleague and invited him to the ranch she owned in Brazil where she bred horses, silly sod got cold feet and didn’t go. Graeme may be amused we had to remind an operator of a camera on a jib that even no smoke was coming out of the funnel at that particular moment it would not do it any good holding it above it being cooked . :-) -- Graeme Wall This account not read. |
