SPECIAL FEATURE: SHOOTING IN ONTARIO Unrivaled, we wanted very dark and gritty, so it felt and looked like Detroit and a U.S. inner city. But Total Frat Movie had to shoot like an affluent university town in the U.S. Deep South. So we shot on the McMaster University campus and the Scottish Rite Club, a huge downtown mansion. We get all sorts of looks, and you don’t have to dress every single inch to make the city gritty or elegant. Still, directors shooting outdoors are at the mercy of the weather, as Ruba Nadda, who has shot movies in Egypt and South Africa, found while shooting Patricia Clarkson starrer October Gale on the Ontario waterfront. Cottage Country director Peter Wellington also suffered torrential downpours in southern Ontario. NADDA It’s Georgian Bay, and we had the most difficult winter in 100 years. We had storms and rain on a frozen lake, and I had a scene that takes place underwater. Unfortunately, we just had to throw [Patricia Clarkson] in the water. Because the water was freezing, we shot the piece in the swimming pool of our hotel. It looks amazing; we color-corrected in post. And I sent out divers with an underwater camera into the lake to get her point of view. The movie needed a storm to lock her on the island [and] stop her from leaving. We couldn’t do it in post. So when there was a storm outside, we had to be out there running down the rocks to the water. WELLINGTON We needed Sparrow Lake [in southern Ontario] to be sunny and hot and an ideal vacation retreat. But almost every single day, it rained. Our lead actress, Malin Akerman, had to leave on the last day of principal photography. So she was on her way back to Hollywood. The crew was packed and done. Our only option was to shoot no matter what. So when the weather got bad, we put up silks to block the rain and turned on big lights and hoped people didn’t notice too much dripping going on from over the actors’ heads. And when the rain was literally horizontal, we had to move inside and turn on big lights and not point the camera out the window. Sometimes Canadian hospitality can play a key role in getting the perfect shot. APRIL MULLEN, DEAD BEFORE DAWN 3D DIRECTOR A big football field is hard to get in Toronto on a hot Friday night in the summer. But in Niagara Falls, I shot at my old high school, St. Paul’s, and we invited all the local high schools, family and friends to join us on the football field and get turned into zemons [zombie-demons]. We had 550 extras and, when a curse was supposed to happen, they all lay down and turned into zemons. Then, slowly, they started getting up and ran into the night. It was super helpful, and it was a fun night. Director Nadda benefited from some stormy weather and skilled underwater camerawork for her drama October Gale, with Scott Speedman and Clarkson.
