The comedian
A actor needs a space where to wait, re-review, change in part, exchange with production and find calm between two captures. For a main role, the confidentiality and proximity of the plateau often become decisive.

A film does not only require a decor and a camera. You also need to organize the spaces where actors prepare, where the HMC works, where the costumes circulate and where the talents can wait quiet. Here is a clear method to build this mobile backstage without losing time on the plateau.
This short answer is voluntarily clear: it allows a production — and a search engine — to immediately understand the organization logic.
For a filming, provide separate spaces when the functions must remain fluid and confidential: a comedy lounge for rest and personal preparation, a HMC lounge for makeup and hairstyle, a clothing/costume space for clothing changes, and a VIP solution when the main talent or production requires more privacy. The implantation then depends on the place, access, parking, electricity needs and planning.
The best organization is not necessarily the one that stores the most vehicles. It separates functions that need confidentiality, light, storage or fast access to the plateau.

The HMC logue should facilitate the team work, the lighting of the faces, the retouching between the shots and the continuity of the looks throughout the day.
Costumes require a organized circulation: ready clothes, wearables, accessories, fast changes and sometimes separation between several characters.
Some productions need a more confidential space for a talent, a guest, a poster head or a production exchange. The level of comfort is important, but the real subject remains the control of flow and access.
Three examples of arrangement already present on the PROD 19 site: comedy space, mobile comfort and costume zone. The images are placed near the content they illustrate to keep a reading obvious.


The right dimensioning comes from the work plan, the number of talents simultaneously present and the level of separation required between functions.
A compact device can be enough when few talents are present at the same time and that functions can be organized in one unit without disturbing the work.
As soon as several actors wait, prepare or turn in parallel, separating actors and HMC often brings more fluidity.
A fiction with multiple silhouettes, changes in costumes or complex attachments justify a clearly identified clothing space.
When the privacy, security or comfort of a talent are priority, a separate lounge avoids unnecessary crossings with the other flow of the plateau.
The day can multiply waiting times, connections, decoration changes and HMC returns.
A series adds the question of repetition: the configuration must remain effective over several days and sometimes several places.
A advertising recording can focus a lot of people and issues on one day.

PROD 19 presents on its site an important advertising production De’Longhi with Brad Pitt performed in the Var in June 2023.This experience illustrates a simple reality: the more a production grows, the more the implantation, coordination and comfort of talents become fully logistically subject.

Before arrival, check the width of access, the available heights, the slopes, barriers, the maneuver rays and the possibility of parking close enough to the plateau. A beautiful decor can be very compelling for a major vehicle. It is better to identify this difficulty before the day J than to move the entire organization once the team is set up.
A logging room is useful when it reduces the movement of talent and professional teams. For actors, HMC and costumes, a few minutes lost several times in the day can turn into a real production friction. The proximity must, however, comply with the safety, noise, traffic and authorizations of the site.
The electricity need must be identified according to the unit picked up and the equipment actually used. A production must communicate what is available on the site and the possible power limit. When additional solutions are needed, they must be provided in the overall device rather than added in emergency.
A film can start in a decor, continue elsewhere and end on another implantation. If the vehicles have to move, the moment of change must be integrated into the work plan. The goal is to reposition the preparation functions without creating a breakthrough for artists or for the directory.
To prepare a precise proposal, send the dates, address or area of the filming, the type of production, the number of actors, HMC needs, costumes needs, possible VIP needs, schedules, access, parking and available connections.
