This week, I had the pleasure of chatting with the incredibly talented Production Designer, Roberto Bonelli, about his work on Zoë Kravitz's directorial debut, "Blink Twice." Join us as we dive into the fascinating behind-the-scenes story of how Roberto and his crew transformed Channing Tatum’s tech billionaire character’s private island into a captivating hacienda, packed with Victorian colors and intricate design elements. Roberto shares his journey of researching Yucatan architecture to choose the perfect location for this unique narrative. Repainting the compound in Victorian colors, adding details and expanding the pool area and using the existing jungle green to play off fits perfectly into the puzzle of the narrative. Roberto's innovative designs breathe life into every scene. He also tells of the stunning 9-foot tall light fixtures and a picture perfect custom-built sauna that add depth to the story.
