EP 106 PHOTO SHOOT / PARKING GARAGE 9/10

Hello and welcome.  We're glad you'll be joining us.  In the following post you will find descriptions  to help you with your choices of what to bring tomorrow, WEDNESDAY, 9/10.

We expect you to read this everyday before coming to work, even if you've worked with us previously.  There will be information specific to every day.  This could vary day to day, depending on the story.  Thank you!  

-Please, be on time.

-Always come dressed in your first, best choice of the descriptions for your character.   After reading the character descriptions that you will find here, make your best pick and wear it in.  However, you will ALWAYS be expected to bring options with you so that we can make the final choices.

*****PLEASE NOTE*****

DETECTIVES, UNIFORMED COPS AND CSI will be working in the Photo Shoot and as 
BG in EP 106

Those with uniforms will not have a change of clothing, but the DETECTIVES will need to have enough options for 2 or 3 changes for the Photo Shoot
and for the screen day in EP 106

This can be done mostly with shirts and ties, but please bring several options of the things 
listed under your character description so that we can pull it all together.  

Please also note that we are asking you to bring a trench coat or top coat to be worn with your suits or
sport coats because the Photo Shoot is to take place over several different seasons.



ABOUT SECRETS & LIES

THIS STORY TAKES PLACE IN THE WINTER, LEADING UP TO CHRISTMAS. 
We are playing a warm, Southern Winter.  We are going to dress you as you would dress for the fall.
Light layering will be the key to making this work look.

THE COLOR PALETTE FOR THE SHOW IS ONE OF COOL AND DARK TONES.
See the color charts below for the muted colors that work for our show.  Also, check the white chart for alternatives to bright white.

The red in the color chart below is really more of a brick red or a brown red.  DO NOT BRING BRIGHT RED.

Do not bring us all black or grey clothing, please.  Too much black simply becomes a hole in the screen. 









On WEDNESDAY 9/10, the Background will be in 1 SCREEN DAYS for EP 105. However, please bring enough options so that we can make some choices.  


PHOTO SHOOT



We will shoot rain or shine....so everyone should bring a solid, dark colored umbrella, if you have it.
