Very Interesting Article on the Weirton Daily Times Site

In an article about a visit to a middle school located in Weirton, the following is mentioned:

"Demian Resnick, location manager, explained to students that it is his job to find the perfect place to film a movie. He said once the script has been written and read, he must then search throughout the country visiting cities with qualities he thinks the director will like.

"I searched through anywhere between 150 to 200 towns including Weirton," he said. "I took pictures of the Main Street of each town and what the houses look like and the countryside."

Resnick said he helps make the arrangements with the town to make sure film productions can take place. He has worked with several television and movie productions including "The Apprentice" and "Cloverfield." He said Weirton was a great choice and thanked everyone for their cooperation.

Domenic Silvestri, art director, stated it is his job to make the town look like what it needs to look like for the scenes. He said sometimes sets have to be built but when they are out in the real world, like in Weirton, he said they have to change some things to look like they want it to look.

Silvestri, whose work includes "Pirates of the Caribbean," "50 First Dates," "The Longest Yard" and the television shows "Lost" and "Glee," stated artists make illustrations of what they need places and sets to look like and then he works to make it look that way."

I just thought it was one of those dead-give-away's with the mentioning of these two people, who have done previous work with JJ Abrams.
