It was a name that people still enjoy saying for the shock value\u2014Schitt\u2019s Creek. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Smither responded the way most people naturally would, with a bit of giggling.

While regrouping, they are forced to move to the only property they own\u2014the tiny town of Schitt\u2019s Creek\u2014a place they once bought as a joke. The parents (Catherine O\u2019Hara and Eugene Levy) and their two adult children (Dan Levy and Annie Murphy) move into two adjacent rooms in a rundown motel and try to readjust their lives. The sitcom, which ran for six seasons and is now available on Netflix, Amazon Prime and Pop TV, brought a new comic force to television: Dan Levy, who served as showrunner for this Canadian sitcom, also co-created, wrote, directed, produced and starred in it.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-29300 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/home\/locatis4\/public_html\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC2_EP201_D34_SteveWilkie_0033-1-1030x688.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1030\" height=\"688\" srcset=\"https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC2_EP201_D34_SteveWilkie_0033-1-1030x688.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC2_EP201_D34_SteveWilkie_0033-1-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC2_EP201_D34_SteveWilkie_0033-1-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC2_EP201_D34_SteveWilkie_0033-1-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC2_EP201_D34_SteveWilkie_0033-1.jpg 1150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/>In the beginning, Smither had no idea what a huge success <i>Schitt\u2019s Creek<\/i> would become.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Now he says, \u201cIn the last year, I have met \u2018Schittheads,\u2019 as they are called, from Australia and Boston in Goodwood (the Ontario town eventually chosen to be Schitt\u2019s Creek) and at the motel, as set-jetting becomes more popular.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>During the winter of 2013-2014, Smither started searching for locations. \u201cI spent a few months traveling the back roads around the countryside outside of Toronto in my little black rented Fiat 500,\u201d he says. \u201cIt was not my first choice for a winter, country-lane car, but we survived a lot of kilometers and some heavy weather.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOnce the new year rolled around and I had to take folks out to scout, I swapped the Fiat for the Soccer Mom vehicle. I submitted just under 30 towns for consideration, and Eugene and Dan, the show\u2019s creators and shepherds, expressed interest in about six or seven. I kept trying to steer them to towns that didn\u2019t have a highway running through them, so we would be able to control traffic throughout the day while we filmed there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>DEALING WITH TRAFFIC<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Eventually, the team stopped in Goodwood, a hamlet with a regional highway running through the middle of it and surrounded by gravel quarries. \u201cHuge tandem trucks use that highway to take gravel to a lot of different places,\u201d Smither says, \u201cso I was skeptical. We slid open the van doors and stepped out into a cold and snowy village. Eugene, Dan, Colin, production designer Brendan Smith, first assistant director David Manion and I took our first common look at what was to be most of Schitt\u2019s Creek.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>\u201cThe historic main intersection (two stop signs for north and south local traffic) had an old industrial shop that was once a gas station on one corner. Another corner had a false-front building across the highway that turned out to be a residence. It played our caf\u00e9 exterior. On the third corner was a store attached to a house (the general store in the early seasons which eventually became the Rose Apothecary). The fourth corner is occupied by Annina\u2019s, a busy bake shop and restaurant with, for us, an unsuitable modern exterior that was fortunately surrounded by pine trees. We didn\u2019t film it, but we patronized it\u2014a lot. Their butter tarts (a Canadian taste treat) are the best in the region.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-29297 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/home\/locatis4\/public_html\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC6_EP609_D40_SteveWilkie_0084_ext-1030x577.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1030\" height=\"577\" srcset=\"https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC6_EP609_D40_SteveWilkie_0084_ext-1030x577.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC6_EP609_D40_SteveWilkie_0084_ext-400x224.jpg 400w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC6_EP609_D40_SteveWilkie_0084_ext-768x430.jpg 768w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC6_EP609_D40_SteveWilkie_0084_ext.jpg 1150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u201cEugene and Dan both stated that they really liked this location. Since I was representing the production and was still trying to be practical, I continued to promote the towns off the highway. We visited a few more, but both Eugene and Dan were steadfast and preferred Goodwood to anything else I showed them. The solution to our traffic problem was to shift the workweek from Sunday to Thursday for the location-filming portion of the season and spend Sundays at or near the intersection.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Once Goodwood, which is 36 miles northeast of Toronto, was selected, Smither went back and photographed the rest of the town. \u201cI got into the Lions Club Town Hall building next to the railway tracks and shot several house exteriors,\u201d he says. \u201cThe west side of Front Street has houses that are virtually right on the sidewalk with minimal setback.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe east side had several newer houses and big setbacks. As a result, we concentrated on the west side and found the mayor\u2019s house and Ray Bhutani\u2019s house there. They were the smallest and second smallest houses on that side because smaller is funnier. Next to Ray\u2019s house, we placed the motel sign with the big arrow on it. We never revealed that you would be driving up someone\u2019s driveway if you turned where the sign indicated. Most roadside scenes were shot nearby.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<div class=\"mks_pullquote mks_pullquote_right\" style=\"width:750px; font-size: 14px; color: #006a93; background-color:#F9EED2;\">\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">How Smither Became a Location Manager<\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_29305\" style=\"width: 187px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-29305\" class=\"wp-image-29305\" src=\"http:\/\/home\/locatis4\/public_html\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/GeoffBrownCoat-4860-Edit.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"177\" height=\"230\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-29305\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo courtesy of Geoff Smither<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\u201cMy mother was a dance teacher and choreographer, and she worked at the CBC in the mid-\u201950s, in the early years of television. I danced as a kid and guested on TV shows and Christmas specials and acted in commercials (including the voice of Tony the Tiger Junior in three Frosted Flakes commercials). I went through high school and university with an eye toward drama. In the middle of my university studies, I switched to fine arts. Photography was my focus.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I finished university, I immediately started soldering electronics because I needed a job. While I was doing that, a university friend asked me to do some work on a show he was working on. I started in front of the camera and then migrated behind it. When that small company laid off most of its employees, I landed a job in a production office as PA for four or five shows. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cSomeone asked if I could take some photos of a location that the location manager wanted. I went out with my camera and tripod and I made very careful panorama photographs. This was in the days of film and prints and physical file folders. The location manager said, \u2018These are really good. You could make money doing this.\u2019 For a while, I worked as both an assistant director and assistant location manager and found I was getting more work in the locations end, so I just slid into locations.

When Geoff and I went to the Council meeting to talk about it, they really laughed. But they got onboard with us. We were never embarrassed about the name of the show, but before the level of awareness was high enough, we\u2019d brace ourselves for reactions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One unexpected reaction occurred in Barnsley\u2019s own home. \u201cWe\u2019ve been saying the word schitt in my house for six or seven years,\u201d he says, \u201cand it doesn\u2019t mean what it used to mean. I have young kids, and my daughter got such a kick out of having the freedom to say it, and we couldn\u2019t do anything about it. She got us on a technicality.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Uxbridge Town Council members got used to the provocative name much quicker, according to Smither. \u201cWhen Bev brought forward the motion to allow a TV series to film in Goodwood,\u201d he says, \u201cone of the other councilors leaned into his microphone and slyly asked Bev to state, for-the-record, the name Schitt\u2019s Creek. The entire Council broke up laughing, and some heavy hubbub ensued with comments about being \u2018extras\u2019 on the show emerging from the racket.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cBev calmly leaned in, keyed the button on her microphone and said, \u2018I\u2019d like to bring it to the attention of our esteemed Council that two representatives of the series are attending this meeting.\u2019 The mayor scooped up her gavel and banged it repeatedly, calling, \u2018ORDER! ORDER!\u2019 A lot of papers got shuffled, and several smirks were suppressed. I got up to speak for a few minutes and outlined our worked-on strategy to the Council.

Geoff also had a good conceptual idea of what we were looking for\u2014this is not as easy as it sounds\u2014so there is not so much time wasted in looking at locations that will clearly not work.\u201d<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cGeoff is a hard worker,\u201d Barnsley adds. \u201cHe knows Ontario, and he knows how to manage locations and is just such a professional. We were in the same office, so we had conversations pretty much daily, tracking how things were going. I\u2019d look at the location boards and see what was scheduled. I\u2019d sign all the location agreements for him. Geoff was so good as a representative of the production. We had to go back to many of the locations season after season, and he was a master at keeping relationships with owners positive. That makes production a lot easier.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Both Smither and Smith worked closely with Dan Levy. \u201cDan was the arbiter,\u201d Smither says. \u201cEugene stepped back and let Dan take over. Dan\u2019s fingers were in every little piece of the show, so sometimes it was tough to get him to respond. I worked through his assistant quite a bit.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDan had a very clear view of the show and a clear understanding of the characters within it\u2014their tastes, their style, their history,\u201d Smith adds. \u201cThe locations simply had to cater for this and work along with it. The motel was a good example. It just felt like the right one, almost as if it had the right \u2018character.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor me, the biggest challenge to bringing Schitt\u2019s Creek to the screen was making it interesting, a little quirky. Even though the Roses initially hate the town and can\u2019t wait to get out of it, it still had to have some charm. We knew it would grow on the family so we wanted it to be likeable. The recurring locations\u2014the store, the motel, even the street in the town\u2014should make you want to go back to them. There\u2019s a kind of coziness to old locations. You feel at home in them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-29296\" src=\"http:\/\/home\/locatis4\/public_html\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC2_EP208_D43_SteveW_0035-ext-1030x675.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1030\" height=\"675\" srcset=\"https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC2_EP208_D43_SteveW_0035-ext-1030x675.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC2_EP208_D43_SteveW_0035-ext-400x262.jpg 400w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC2_EP208_D43_SteveW_0035-ext-768x504.jpg 768w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC2_EP208_D43_SteveW_0035-ext-100x65.jpg 100w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC2_EP208_D43_SteveW_0035-ext-260x170.jpg 260w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC2_EP208_D43_SteveW_0035-ext.jpg 1150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/>THE RIGHT MOTEL<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Finding the right motel was a worry for everyone, although Smither had some good ideas. \u201cI knew exactly where to look,\u201d he says. \u201cThe Hockley Valley is a picturesque valley near Orangeville, Ontario. The Nottawasaga River runs through it and part of the Bruce Trail in the Caledon Region of Ontario.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI knew from previous visits that there is a motel on the Hockley Road, a quiet stretch running east from Orangeville, through the valley to the village of Hockley. It is frequented by motorcycle riders due to its curves and the picturesque valley, but it is out in the country and not heavily traveled.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cPretty much every other motel in Canada is built on a highway or on a main road that used to be a highway before some big bypass was built. This one was no longer being used as a motel. It was owned by an athletic group that trained elite young basketball players, enrolling them in the local high school for their education and billeting them in the motel. The owner agreed, so I showed photos to Eugene and Dan. They liked it so we visited it in the dead of winter and locked it down.\u201d (The athletic institute has since built a residence on its site so the motel is slated to go up for sale this spring.)<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>\u201cYou\u2019d think roadside motels would be sprinkled all over the place,\u201d Barnsley says, \u201cbut they\u2019re really a relic of the past. In an urban center, where sprawl is a real factor, often these small motels were razed for new developments. Geoff scoured a lot of southern Ontario looking for the right location. He found it in Mono, Ontario, and it\u2019s become iconic.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>\u201cThe motel was the farthest location from the office\u2014about 40 miles away. It was out in the country, and I really enjoyed driving there. I don\u2019t get to drive on country roads very often.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Prior to <i>Schitt\u2019s Creek<\/i>, I was the producer on a multi-camera live sitcom (<i>Spun Out<\/i>), so I\u2019d be on the stage every day. You make your show and you\u2019re done. With <i>Schitt\u2019s Creek<\/i>, I got a sense of the city and the community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe looked at several\u2014probably a dozen or so\u2014motels,\u201d Smith adds. \u201cThe one we chose was isolated, which was good. There were no proximate buildings that we would have had to avoid. It had a nice woody background too, and it looked right for us in terms of style and age.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_29302\" style=\"width: 1040px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-29302\" class=\"wp-image-29302 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/home\/locatis4\/public_html\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC_EP101_D20_0037_StephenScott-1030x706.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1030\" height=\"706\" srcset=\"https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC_EP101_D20_0037_StephenScott-1030x706.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC_EP101_D20_0037_StephenScott-400x274.jpg 400w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC_EP101_D20_0037_StephenScott-768x526.jpg 768w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC_EP101_D20_0037_StephenScott.jpg 1150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-29302\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo by Stephen Scott, courtesy of CBC<\/p><\/div>\n<p><b> INTERIORS<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\u201cBoth Goodwood and the motel formed the backbone of the show\u2019s locations,\u201d Smither says.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cInteriors were built to match the motel, the caf\u00e9, the mayor\u2019s house, the town hall (eventually) and Mutt\u2019s barn. Scripts were mostly written in advance of the season. At the very least, we had outlines for every episode in-hand by the time we started, so each spring the show was able to film seven weeks of interiors in the studio and then four weeks of exteriors in June because we like the green foliage and even though we are Canadian, we don\u2019t like to be out in the cold that much.\u201d Over the years, the series filmed at Pinewood Toronto Studios, Dufferin Gate Studios and Revival Studios in Toronto.<\/p>\n<p>Once the motel was nailed down, Smither and his team began transforming Goodwood into <i>Schitt\u2019s Creek<\/i>. \u201cOne of my concerns was shooting at the crossroads,\u201d Smither says. \u201cThe two roads are not at 90-degree angles to each other, but it allows you to see all three facades in some shots. Then the town peters out and becomes countryside. There\u2019s a top of a hill at one end with a big quarry entrance and a traffic light and a gas station at the other end. There was a small railroad crossing to the north and a residential street to the south. It was small enough and obviously, country enough that this could be a really tiny place, which is what they were after.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-29304\" src=\"http:\/\/home\/locatis4\/public_html\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC2_EP205_D40_SteveWilkie_0034-1030x688.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1030\" height=\"688\" srcset=\"https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC2_EP205_D40_SteveWilkie_0034-1030x688.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC2_EP205_D40_SteveWilkie_0034-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC2_EP205_D40_SteveWilkie_0034-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC2_EP205_D40_SteveWilkie_0034-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC2_EP205_D40_SteveWilkie_0034.jpg 1150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/>COMPOUNDING CONCERNS<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The railroad caused a number of filming disruptions. \u201cAn historical tourist train came through once in the morning and once in the afternoon on weekends (only). It blew a horn four times every time it crossed a street, and there were three streets it crossed within three-quarters of a mile. That\u2019s a lot of horns going in both directions. Every now and then, we\u2019d have to stop shooting to let the train go through. They\u2019d tour down and then tour back an hour later,\u201d notes Smither. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Smither was concerned about the impact <i>Schitt\u2019s Creek<\/i> might have on Goodwood. \u201cI dealt extensively with the people there, going back to talk to them every year. When we signed the deal for the first season, we told everybody, \u2018This is going to be an ongoing series. We want your commitment for each year, so we\u2019ve structured in an increase for everyone\u2014the amount you\u2019d get paid on a daily basis.\u2019 That helped, I think. We talked to everybody. A few people didn\u2019t want us there, but most people we saw and dealt with were not disappointed to see us each year. There are not a lot of businesses there except for Annina\u2019s Bakeshop, a kids\u2019 daycare center, a gas station and a Subway shop in the gas station and the Goodwood branch of Toronto knitting shop Romni Wools, which we used as the general store\/Rose Apothecary.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnnina\u2019s was my biggest concern when I went in to chat with the owner. I said, \u2018Look. We\u2019re going to be intermittently closing down the intersection every Sunday for the month of June and we should talk and work out some sort of compensation so it won\u2019t affect your business.\u2019 He said, \u2018Don\u2019t worry about it. My customers will find their way here. I have a thousand people a day coming here on weekends. Let\u2019s talk about you hiring us as caterers while you\u2019re in town. If you do that, we\u2019ll call it even.\u2019 We hired them, and they never asked us for anything else.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i>Schitt\u2019s Creek<\/i> filmed for about 11 weeks each spring\u2014the first seven weeks in a studio and then four weeks on location. \u201cStudio work included the motel rooms and office, the diner, Mayor Schitt\u2019s house and Ted\u2019s apartment,\u201d Smith says. \u201cWe shot the town hall on location until Season 4, when we replicated it in the studio. And I do remember building a set for a hotel dining room at the last minute!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Smither\u2019s most difficult negotiations involved the two major roads coming through Goodwood. \u201cOne is a regional road and one is a municipal road,\u201d he says. \u201cIn order to stop traffic on those two roads, we had to get permits from the municipality and the region. Each jurisdiction wanted $500 a day just for the permit. I talked to them both initially and got a response from the municipality. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI said, \u2018We don\u2019t mind if you want to recover your costs for issuing permits, but I\u2019m applying for a permit for multiple days. I don\u2019t feel you should be charging me on a per-day basis. You\u2019re issuing one permit, whether it\u2019s for one day or 10 days.\u2019 The municipality people discussed it and said, \u2018We\u2019ll cut the permit fee in half for you.\u2019 I accepted that. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe region didn\u2019t respond, so we ended up paying $500 per day for the regional permit for the first few seasons. It\u2019s something that we pursued and had a big meeting with the economic development people and the CEO of the region. They actually reviewed it and came back with a zero-dollar fee. It took a couple of months to do it, but they reviewed it and changed their whole policy, and now the region doesn\u2019t charge anything for a permit. The Ontario Film Office worked with us on this. They collect data on how much revenue filming brings into a community, and they were able to pass that onto the regions and municipalities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>ROCOCO VS. MOTEL STYLE<\/b><\/p>\n<p>A location that was surprisingly easy to find was the house the family got thrown out of in the very first episode. \u201cIt was very over-the-top,\u201d Smither says. \u201cIt was a new build in the beaux-arts style with some rococo elements, trompe l\u2019oeil ceilings and gilt, and it was super ornate. I knew about it because I\u2019d driven by it at the urging of another homeowner in the same area who found it, ummm, remarkable. Other shows had filmed there prior to my knocking on the door so the owner knew about filming. We went back there in a subsequent season for a flashback party that included (actor) Paul Shaffer in the cast.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Less easy to find was the wedding venue in the last season. \u201cWe looked at country estates and barn wedding venues, but they were too rustic,\u201d Smither says. We ended up shooting it in Toronto. Dan wanted something quite different from Schitt\u2019s Creek. He wanted it to be elegant like when they were wealthy.\u201d<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Another of Smither\u2019s location challenges on Season 6 involved locating a men\u2019s clothing store and a bank. \u201cWe found them on the same block in Oshawa,\u201d he says, still slightly shocked. \u201cTo find a clothing store that\u2019s willing to play and looks like the one Dan wants and, \u2018Oh, gee!<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>There\u2019s a closed bank on the same block!\u2019 <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-29303\" src=\"http:\/\/home\/locatis4\/public_html\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC6_EP601_D43_SteveWilkie_0128-1030x687.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1030\" height=\"687\" srcset=\"https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC6_EP601_D43_SteveWilkie_0128-1030x687.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC6_EP601_D43_SteveWilkie_0128-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC6_EP601_D43_SteveWilkie_0128-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC6_EP601_D43_SteveWilkie_0128-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/locationmanagers.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SC6_EP601_D43_SteveWilkie_0128.jpg 1150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/>FINDING THE CREEK<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome things were tougher to find. We needed a creek and a country house together for the last season. That proved harder than I thought it would. The brief was to find a house that looked like Kate Winslet\u2019s cottage from <i>The Holiday<\/i> (which had been built for that movie), and it had to be shot on the same day as the creek, which needed to be bucolic and natural but still a place where Moira (Catherine O\u2019Hara) could walk in her high heels. We actually found that within Toronto city limits.\u201d <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cUntil Season 6, we never saw the creek,\u201d Smither adds. \u201cThere was nothing remotely creek-y about Goodwood, and they didn\u2019t mind that. They thought it was funny that we didn\u2019t see the creek. There\u2019s a river that runs right behind the motel. I think we only saw that one time in six seasons.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlso, in a big switch for us, they plan a trip to the big city for some meetings and we had to find high-end law offices and a big-city financial district. We shot in the lobby of the sister tower to the one that <i>Suits<\/i> uses at the Bay-Adelaide Centre and in some law offices in the Mies van der Rohe-designed towers of the Toronto-Dominion Centre. That was the first time we shot anything in the financial district of Toronto, but because we were on a Sunday-to-Thursday shooting week, we were able to do that on a Sunday.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>Looking back over his years working on the series, Smither says, \u201cThere are worse ways to spend June than out in the countryside of Ontario with comedy legends and a great crew and cast.\u201d Tipping his hat to his main ALM for <i>Schitt\u2019s Creek<\/i>, Steve Zagrodny, he says, \u201cSteve is often in the right place at the right time, like the day he observed a worker painting orange DayGlo paint on the asphalt in Goodwood\u2019s intersection and asked what he was doing. The worker stated that they were re-paving the whole intersection (during June). Thanks to Steve\u2019s observational skills, we were able to ask the region to delay the re-paving until we finished the season.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Smither also credits assistant location managers James Blacker and Dan Matthews\/LMGI and his on-set production assistant, Christopher Vargas, with keeping things running smoothly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBecause we were outside the city, we didn\u2019t have to fight any other productions over parking and permits,\u201d he adds. \u201cThe sixth and final season is now in the can, and both Goodwood and the motel are stops on many a fan tour. In fact, if you type Schitt\u2019s Creek into Google maps, it will show both the motel and Bob\u2019s Garage.\u201d<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Barnsley was surprised how well the show has been received. \u201cIt was beyond our wildest dreams,\u201d he says. \u201cThere\u2019s such awareness of <i>Schitt\u2019s Creek<\/i>, which is not always the case with a Canadian show. It\u2019s recognized globally. I was proud to see such legends as Catherine O\u2019Hara and Eugene Levy and now Dan Levy. He is a creative genius. This has been such a spectacular show. When I look back on it, I don\u2019t know how I can ever have another experience like this.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>\u201cPeople love to talk about <i>Schitt\u2019s Creek<\/i>, and they get excited when they meet people who worked on it. I can only measure this anecdotally, but tourism in the communities we filmed in has increased because people want to see these locations and take pictures with them. The show has had a really positive economic impact.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>The Location Team:<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Location Manager<\/b> Geoffrey Smither\/LMGI<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Assistant Location Managers<br \/>\n<\/b>Steve Zagrodny, James Blacker, Dan Matthews\/LMGI<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Location PA<\/b> Christopher Vargas<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seven years ago, LM Geoffrey Smither\/LMGI got a phone call from producer Colin Brunton asking if he would be available to work on a new series with Eugene Levy and Catherine O&#8217;Hara?<\/p>","protected":false},"author":63,"featured_media":29295,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[49],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-29293","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-featured"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
