This past December, I was in Bucharest shooting with director Pavel Cantu re-enactments for a Discovery Channel special on Nostradamus. We covered Marie Antoinette in the guillotine, Napoleon, the plague, The Assault of Bastille, The Inquisition, the Fires of London and Nostradamus young & old. For period themes, I think it is hard to beat Rumania as they do have excellent natural locations as well as great period sets (streets, castles, etc). Pavel came very prepared and draw wonderful boards, which made my life easy all the way through. It was cold and the Red cameras gave us some problems (polarized viewfinder, short life batteries) but it was worth bringing them as the quality speaks for itself. We worked at Media Pro and Castle Studios with a local and seasoned crew, and overall we had a great shoot. We arrived to LA with 9 hours of material and we color corrected at Timecode Multimedia were Stuart Ferreira did a great job. The TV show is scheduled to air in June. Here are some frame grabs.
