BATES MOTEL

 

When I heard that there was to be a TV Series starting up in Vancouver called "BATES MOTEL, I had to have that job. 5 seasons later I am proud to have been part of this piece of television history. It was a show that could have gone either way. The audience embraced the idea and it flew.

​

The props on this show were fun. Yes there were the stock guns, badges, blood and rubber knives, but I got to delve into the world of taxidermy. Something I had little to do with before. We got to create Mother's iconic "Turkey Pot Pie" (Norman's favourite), replicate the Great Horned Owl from "Psycho" and the very best - "JUNO" - Norman's taxidermy dog.

​

Much love and and effort went into this show, it was truly a creative collective, something not all too common on productions. I was responsible for numerous script changes throughout the seasons simply because the Producers were open to hearing all ideas.

​

Below is the latest trailer for Season V. It captures a lot of my teams work.
