So now that you've seen First Man it's now time to go Behind the Mind.

149243752ti Took about two hours for Carlos to get into Clinton make-up. That's Carlos and his make-up artist, James.

149245067tiHere is the final product.




149243003ti Most of this sketch was shot on Green Screen. What that means is that, most of the actions was shot behind a special green backdrop. When the film is imported into a computer, that green backdrop can be digitally replaced by a any background we choose. Not having to build a set for each sketch saves us money. It's does however take a great deal of time to make it look right.
149245806sThe shots have to be specially lit, and the computer graphic guys have to find a background that matches.
There were many meetings on this piece about whether we should on a Oval office set...or use the green screen. We were having a hard time find a great oval office backdrop.

149250590tiHere's a shot of our esteemed director, Danny Boyle, talking with the actors.

Chelsea Clinton was played by Jennifer Elise Cox, who played Jan Brady in the Very Brady Movie
