Behind the
scenes of Lucyfire's "The
Pain Song"
Nothing like a nice 30 degree day in the desert to bring out the best in a cast and crew. But although we had to drive through the snow to get to our location, we only had to deal with freezing rain once we were actually there. So no problem...

set

Brian discusses the bus performance with Johan Edlund;
trivia note: the wrecked bus was used in the blockbuster film Terminator 2
and abandoned at the location after their shoot

Johan is given star treatment.

Our fearless DP Robert Smith
captures the action in the wasteland, wearing a stocking cap, but no gloves
(did I mention it was really cold?)
