Production talk

 I am re- watching a Netflix series called “Narcos” which was based on the infamous cocaine drug lord known as Pablo Escobar, and the show goes in depth about his personal life. The show mimicked what a drug meeting looked like and where they took place. Most “meetings” take place in a safe and discreet setting. These meetings mostly take place in the house of the owner of the business. A very personal area, with armed guards or some sort of security surrounding and constantly watching every blind spot. 

The pictures I added below are from “Narcos Colombia” and “Narcos Mexico”. The pictures are a perfect example of what we want our video to look like. 

My group is relying on our friends to use their houses as the setting of the “meetings”. These Weston houses have palm trees surrounding the pools and usually a little area where people can sit around and talk. With the props like the fake money, tacky jewelry, and other things, we can perfectly mimic a drug “meeting”. 

If that doesn’t end up working out, we can go to a hotel and Miami and ask to use an empty villa to film in. Either way the house or the villa can make the perfect setting for the video.
