Much of the 20-day shoot took place in Rancho Palos Verdes at a property that once belonged to Fuller’s grandmother; the remaining Southern California locations were obtained gratis through favors called in. Among the challenges they dealt with were climbing down to Thousand Steps Beach in Laguna with their equipment for the “worst day of shooting,” having to “hold for peacock” during shots because the birds that roamed the RPV property had exquisite timing, and a silk lighting screen that nearly fell onto Sofranko during a windstorm.
