As Halloween comes to a close, I want to share the results of last weeks Spooky Shoot hosted at OBLIVION CINEMA + ARTS.

Terris Dillon and her husband put together Adam and Barbra costumes near indistinguishable from the screen using discarded boxes, improvised, spray foam, and ping pong balls. It’s always a joy to work such creative people!

Yes, before you ask—I already had the prop liver.

Apologies for the low energy voiceover. 5 days of Halloween has hollowed my energy reserves out—thanks for sticking around for this thrown together series!
