The main character, Jason, spent hours upon hours creating this love algorithm. We wanted to give his apartment the look of someone completely obsessed. The reporter, Stacey, is both intrigued and a little freaked out. 

Costume choices for both were relatively simple. Stacey Summers played by Robin Rose Singer was given an eye catching look that contrasted her from Jason, played by John Kroft. We wanted Jason to appear to have tried to dress up a little, or as much as he can, for his meeting with Stacey. 

In this bar setting the task was to make it look populated, and be sure that all of the extras had drinks in hand in case they were ever in the shot. Required preparing prop alcohol, generally apple juice or tonic water, and putting fake labels on empty beer bottles and filling them with either dark juices/soda or light juices/soda.
