March 24, 2015: Zoie Palmer nails it! The Android roll-out continues! Introducing Post Production Producer Rachel Sutherland!

Last up tonight was the extra scene I wrote for episode #107. ��Whenever I write one of these, it invariably ends up being an Android scene because the character is so damn fun to write for – because Zoie Palmer is so damn good at playing her. This one was a particularly tricky corridor encounter and Zoie herself confided that, while she doesn’t usually get nervous before a scene, this one was a bit of an exception. ��Not that it showed. ��She NAILED it. ��The crew had a hell of a time keeping it together during the four takes – but completely lost it, along with the equally terrific Marc Ben-David, during the rehearsal. ��I’ve spent the past two hours walking around the apartment, shouting “TWOOOO DOZEN!” at the top of my lungs. ��Mark it! ��Episode #107, Scene 27A, Int. Ship – Corridor H: ONE and the Android. ��I guarantee it’ll be making the youtube rounds after it airs.

Tonight, there is no bigger Zoie Palmer fan than me. ��With the possible exception of Akemi who has watched the first six cuts of��Dark Matter‘s first season and has completely fallen in love with her character.

Speaking of our dear Android, how’s this little sneak peek at what we have in the works:

��From one favorite gal to another…

She rules Post Production with an iron fist – respected, admired and, in some cases, feared. ��She makes damn sure the episodes are locked, the deliveries made, and the trains run on time. ��Cross her at your peril! ��She is Rachel Sutherland, Dark Matter��Post Production Producer! ��And she is��a force to be reckoned with!

And positively delightful company. ��I always get to editing early just so that we can chat. ��She’s one of those people who you can talk to for days on end.

AND she’s a fellow foodie who, on occasion, will surprise me with treats. ��Cookies! Chocolate! �� Two extra days of editing!

This weekend, we’re hitting Buca Restaurant on King. ��Taleggio cheese, duck yolk, and fresh white truffle pizzas beware. ��We’re taking no prisoners!
