PhreeZone 20 #6 December 30, 2008 Some times in movies and TV shows roads are wet if they want to cover tire tracks from multiple takes or if they want to have reflections of street lights/buildings appear in night shots. Its also a way to make the roads appear black even if they are a grayish color when dry, realtors used to use that trick to water down driveways and sidewalks before taking home photos since they appear more appealing that way. If you look at any of the recent Bond movies all of the car scenes are shot on wet roads when possible to cover the skid marks from the previous takes.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
poe62 0 #7 December 30, 2008 hmmm...your reply is better than mine. I was gonna say that a bunch of people sneezed all at the same time and lightly glazed the roads with mucus. I guess that's not correct. ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hollypocket 0 #8 December 30, 2008 well, they are in New England. When it's not snowing, it's raining! I haven't seen that show since the first season she left Dean and was going out with Jess. It's still on?!?! /\\> Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

K, I'm completely late to the party here, but I worked on the show a number of times when I lived in L.A., and can't remember us ever wetting down the backlot for exterior shots. Maybe it's just an upping of contrast in the final print? Or maybe you're watching eps that were shot during the rainy season? Signatures are the new black.
