The Jane Austen Book Club - Stunt Double/Priciple Actor/Consultant
In a meeting with John Toon, ACS, director of photography for The Jane Austen Book Club, we talked about the stunt and what the director, Robin Swicord, wanted to achieve. The idea was that Maggie Grace's character goes skydiving and ends up crash landing and breaking her arm which is how she meets her new girlfriend. I doubled the skydiving instructor on the stunt unit and also got the chance to be the principle actor as well with Maggie. This was one of my favorite projects and the entire crew of Jane Austen Book Club was probably one of the best I've ever worked with.
