Returning to Normal

In some ways, it was business as usual. But, during a pandemic, you don’t get much business as usual. So, despite the masks, it was fulfilling to have a full crew on set last week.

The production was a Spanish-language infomercial for a health-insurance product. It features two hosts and several Zoom interviews. On production day, the Bauhaus studio held a full crew, including Bauhaus staff and contractors, and representatives from an Austin advertising agency. In addition to the producer, director and videographer, there were script supervisors, a production assistant, gaffer, teleprompter operator, the set designer, wardrobe, makeup, craft services…

The crew included:

• Eric Hanken, producer
• Luis Munoz, director
• Kenny Massengill, director of photography
• Jairo Llort, copywriter/creative lead
• Andrea Meral, script supervisor
• Liz Hollingsworth, agency liaison/production assistance
• Karen Arredondo, set designer
• And others.
• The talent was Adolfo Prieto and Anjanette Gautier Castro
