A PEEK UNDER THE SKIRT…

Acting whilst producing the first ever short film of Candid Broads was not a good idea. With huge location challenges, the producer and lead actress in the film could not help but fear a big bathroom mirror would break with the camera being insanely close to it (there goes your insurance claim). How to prevent it from happening? Simple, act and cry your eyes out in character whilst discreetly holding the mirror with your hand that isn’t in shot. And reset.
