HAUNTED MANSION

ASSISTANT SET DECORATOR

Direct: Justin Simien 

Production Designer: Darren Gilford 

Set Decorator: Victor Zolfo

DISNEY /  LOCATION:  ATLANTA, GA & NEW ORLEANS, LA

Synopsis: a single mom named Gabbie hires a tour guide, a psychic, a priest and a historian to help exorcise her newly bought mansion after discovering it is inhabited by ghosts.

This filled a lifelong dream to help bring the  beloved Disney's famous Haunted Mansion ride to the big screen for the second time. Since I came in mid-prep, I was put in charge of dressing Ben's house (the main character), the haunted attic, the police station, the hospital, and Harriet's shop. I also helped to oversee the New Orleans part of filming on principal photography  and additional photography back in Atlanta which included the additional set of the cemetery.

This video has clips of behind the camera scenes of the set builds and set decoration.
