Tales of a Film Prop Man: Take Two (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798891326453)

From Michael Owen scoring goals to Larry Hagman as J.R. Ewing from Dallas peddling gas, Pete Benson has worked with them all. But these weren't movie sets-they were commercials.

After years in the film industry, Pete traded feature films for the fast-paced, unpredictable world of advertising. In this follow-up to his popular memoir, Tales of a Film Prop Man, Pete pulls back the curtain on the demanding world of commercials. He reveals trade secrets-like how to keep beer looking fresh under hot studio lights and what happens when a crucial prop goes missing minutes before filming.

Packed with humorous anecdotes about demanding directors, unforeseen disasters, and the camaraderie of a film crew, Tales of a Film Prop Man - Take Two offers a behind-the-scenes look at the chaotic, often hilarious world beneath the glossy images we see on our screens.
