Q for Producer fish: last year many of the agencies I worked at were shooting in Canada because it was more economical than the U.S. is that still the case with the trade war? Any additional costs imposed on productions or, if not, any (completely justified) changes in attitude you’ve noticed to working with American productions?

Idk about all that, but I do know that I’ve shot exclusively in Europe for the past three years. Including last month. So take that anecdote as you will.

One of the reasons to shoot in Canada has been to escape paying SAG union talent, although SAG’s little arm reaches further and further these days so Canada doesn’t seem far away enough. Separately, Canada isnt as cheap as everyone thinks it is. In a cost comparison a year of so ago, it was quite a bit more expensive than shooting in Mexico, (good production value), Eastern Europe, and South Africa which netted out as the least expensive option.

Back when I was getting started in the food world, I worked flipping burgers at In-n-Out. A man came in and said the burgers he had gotten weren’t right.

He was calmer and he told us to have a great day as he left us to clean up the mess he made.
