Production Ferrari

By Tony Vallone story, screenplay, associate producer

Last night we filmed a scene outside the character Patrick's (Ben Savage) house. Now the night before, a Palo Alto resident drove by set in a beautiful white Ferrari. He was interested in the production, handed us his card, and told us to contact him if we needed anything.

The following night I decided that Patrick's father should own a Ferrari to help motivate his son's pursuit of the "dream car". I called up my new Ferrari buddy and he came to set and dropped her off. It may seem needless and unnecessary but Brad (director) and the other producers really liked the idea because it boosted production values and helped the house stand out more.



The owner had a second identical Ferrari that he said we could use a stunt double for the first one, but we never made it to the car explosion scene sunrise. Oh well.
