When it comes to photography everything in the shot is equally as important – the wardrobe, the lighting, the subject, and of course the set, filled with props and furniture. We recently shot William Moseley, star of The Chronicles of Narnia perched on a 17th century traveling iron trunk.

Habité Decor is located near the intersection of Beverly and La Brea in Los Angeles, California. They have been collecting and importing furniture, lighting and architectural elements from the 16th century up to the 1980′s. Their selection is outstanding and we are so happy to work with them for many of our Lightbox Studio shoots.

The CW is picking up five drama series for its 2012-13 schedule.

“The Carrie Diaries,” “Beauty and the Beast,” “Cult,” “Arrow,” and “First Cut” will be added to the netlet’s primetime schedule. As expected, “Gossip Girl” has gotten an 11-episode order for a sixth and final season. Also renewed was bubble drama “Nikita” for a third season and “Hart of Dixie” for a second season. Two series introduced last year, “Ringer” and “The Secret Circle,” are not getting renewals.

All five new series hail from the studio arms of the CW’s joint owners. Not making the cut are “The Selection,” “Shelter” and “Joey Dakota.” There’s been speculation that CW will hold back “Cult” for midseason.

But let’s look on the bright side, we still have RUN and Of Corset’s Mine, so we can’t wait to see those projects!

EDIT: More behind-the-scenes pictures from the photoshoot have popped up!

Shoot gets underway in Ireland in June 2012.

The Works International has boarded UK period-comedy Of Corset’s Mine, starring William Moseley, Camilla Belle, Sir Derek Jacobi, Christine Baranski and Lucy Punch.

The cross-dressing romantic-farce about a womanising aristocrat forced to disguise himself as a woman to save his sister’s inheritance will be directed by actor-director Jason Connery from a script by Sharon Soboil.

Producers are Reynolds Entertainment, Narrator Entertainment and Fantastic Films.

Clare Crean, head of international sales for The Works International said of the project: “Of Corset’s Mine is one of the liveliest and funniest scripts we have read and we are thrilled to be working with Jason, and producers Kelley Reynolds and Jasper Graham.”

The movie will be touted to buyers at the upcoming Marche du Film in Cannes by The Works International.

LONDON – Jason Connery’s Of Corset’s Mine has secured the cross-dressing chops of William Moseley, Camilla Belle, Derek Jacobi, Christine Baranski and Lucy Punch for what is billed as a sexy period comedy.

Written by Sharon Soboil, the Connery-directed film has also secured the worldwide sales services of the U.K.’s Works International ahead of the upcoming Marche du Film in Cannes.

The script details the story of a 19th century womanizing aristocrat who is forced to disguise himself as a woman to save his sister’s inheritance, at the expense of losing the love of his life.

Billed as a comedy of errors with corsets, the movie is set to start shooting in Ireland in June this year and is produced by Jasper Graham and Kelley Reynolds.

The Selection (CW)
Starring: Aimee Teegarden, Ethan Peck
Summary: Based on the book series by Kiera Cass, this epic romance is set 300 years in the future. A poor young woman named America (Teegarden) is chosen by lottery to participate in a ruthless competition to become Peck’s future queen.
Pedigree: The Vampire Diaries’ Elizabeth Craft and Sarah Fain wrote the pilot and will executive-produce.
Why we like it: It’s The Hunger Games meets The Bachelor! Yeah, it’s definitely weird, but trust us, the catty backstabbing among the potential wives is just as compelling as The Bachelor’s ridiculousness and less bloody than Games’ serial child murders.
Why it has a shot: In a post-Hunger Games world, this show’s wacky premise is suddenly completely viable — both creatively and financially. (And remember, this is the network that capitalized on Twilight mania with The Vampire Diaries.)

Only a few weeks left until we find out if it’s going to be picked up by the CW or not!

We’re currently in post-production and will be doing some additional shoots. We’re planning for a Fall premiere. Thanks for your support!

YES (with a couple quibbles / questions / reservations / etc).

Guys, I’m in love with this project in a way that I didn’t expect to be. Its logline (300 years in the future, America doesn’t exist anymore, but there’s a caste system of 8 levels and a monarchy and potential future Queens are picked in a lottery, one from each of the 35 Districts Sections of the post-America country, and enter a competition to become the Queen) is a little long and eye-roll-y and I’ve read way too much of the glut of dystopian YA lit that’s been published post-Hunger Games (and can I get a SQUEE!!!! that the first movie is barely a month away?) for this to ever really register as fully original.

And, y’know what? It’s not fully original. But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t work. And it’s the first attempt to adapt dystopian YA to a weekly television series format, so it’ll wind up feeling very different than the Hunger Games’ movies. Whereas the Hunger Games is an annualized totalitarian method of oppression via a reality TV version of Battle Royale, The Selection is more like The Bachelor.
