Two lighthouse keepers try to maintain their sanity while living on a remote and mysterious New England island in the 1890s.
Simple enough premise, right? Setting the stage for this film was anything but that. Every structure, whether exterior or interior, was designed and built specifically for the film. When people hear that this film was shot on location in Nova Scotia, they assume it was shot here to take advantage of an existing lighthouse. Not the case!
This project was a challenge, in every sense of the word, but it was extremely satisfying to help bring this project to life. True artistry on display from all of the people that made this project happen.
If you’re interested in how we pulled this off, take a look at my behind the scenes look at how we designed and built the sets in this blog post.
