ELTON JOHN: ME MYSELF AND I (ITV 2007)

HIGH DEFINITION (TV DOC)

An Elton John documentary shot entirely on location in Las Vegas, we put Elton into his own past footage (i.e. Forest Gump style) involving masses of archive footage and a huge amount of green and white stage shooting with mix and overlay footage. It involved a lot of tricky props being wheeled in and out of the studio which needed to be scheduled carefully. We also shot a whole CGI sequence at Elton’s Caesar’s Palace gig. Elton was game for it all. We all had a blast.
