AND THE WALLS...CAME TUMBLING DOWN



We're honored that Nancy Driscoll Marketing partnered with Hen House Media to produce a new television spot for Booth Bros Milk. We've been in pre-production on the spot for quite awhile.





First came the construction of the set, which was completed right here at the Hen House studios. It was modular by design for easy transport and assembly on set.

What took the longest was making sure we had all of the safety mechanisms in place so no one, cast crews or cows, would be injured during filming.

We rode the weather for most of the summer, each previously chosen date getting cancelled by rain or clouds. We needed sun and blue skies. Talk about a rough summer for this sort of thing.






Luckily, yesterday was beautiful.

The day at the studio started at 3am, and we arrived at the Silloway Farm in Randolph Center by 6am.

The thick pea soup fog we were in for most of the early morning broke by the time shooting started and the sun stayed the rest of the day.

And we're happy to say that when the walls came down in one of the scenes, it went off without a hitch, only a couple of spooked cows.







PS: Cows can be hard to work with.
