Five people(me & 4 film crew) stand outside colorful doors, with two standing in front of a pink door motel room labeled "116," and three near a teal door. The person in front of the teal door is looking at their phone. Two people in the photo wear glasses. The group is in front of a motel building with a white overhang.

2016. After wrapping the last shoot on Ollie & Emma #TelusOptik #webseries #FilmProduction at the Village Foods grocery store in #Sooke.
Me & the lighting crew were the last ones to clock out. I was always the last crew to leave sets because I was also the locations manager. We goofed around with wigs & accessories props from my costumes tickle trunk. I provided several props for the production filming from my own personal collections.
I was on contract with Less Bland Productions in #VictoriaBC at the time.

Ran into my old #ZoneFM #RadioDJ pal at #CapitalCityComicCon last Fall. I roped this #Filipino local #DJ several years prior - as part of #TelusOptik film series pitch. Back when I was heavy in film industry & before I became disillusioned with that cutthroat & dishonest, heavy booze/drugs filled industry.
We didn't win. We had lots of fun trying to get funding though ✌
