After several weeks of prep, we finally shot the live action portion of Downloaded, today, with our star Tiera Skovbye (Riverdale, Once Upon a Time) and a fantastic crew of Vancouver filmmakers.

It was a testament to the professionalism of all involved that we managed to shoot a 12-page script in one day, with barely one day of location prep/set decoration, and only two hours (and two dozen beers) to wrap.
Big thanks to Vasho and Josh for allowing us the use of their studio and also to our equipment partners, William F White and Inspired Image Picture Company.
