Director Stephen Hall waits for sunrise on location at the lakeside home of our featured SaskTel customers, Marj and Ken.

Out on the lake ice, producer/cinematographer Randy Shumay and director Stephen Hall get set to shoot a scene.

Marj makes sure Ken looks good for the camera. Ken takes the fussing well.

During the winter when the ice is thick in front of their home, Marj and Ken often go for walks on the lake. So that part of their routine became part of the longer video version.

Location sound recorder John Bjerke is just as bundled up in fur as his boom microphone.

Hey, you two. Save that for the wrap party.

Beneath the layers of clothing, that's producer/cinematographer Randy Shumay getting a shot of...

...Ken barbecuing steaks out on the deck in the sunshine.

Art department/set decorator Geoffrey Park shows a (sun) flare for his work.
