We were just setting up for an ad shoot on the upper side of Fresnaye in Cape Town, ironically we had lugged in huge machines to create mist/steam for the commercial, only to find that the whole of Cape Town was submerged in a blanket of white fog, as if the machines had worked too well. The ships in the bay rudely breaking the serene and tranquil dawn with their mechanical conversations through fog horns. The shot was lucky, and only could be revealed in post, with tweaks to the levels, almost as fulfilling as one would imagine a dark room reveal.
