Marty Whitney of San Diego’s Rock Station 105.3 had already recorded the voice over for the script and everything was very well thought out. We had to find a place that resembled the deep jungle and there were some really great spots in San Diego’s Balboa Park, which helped us tricking everyone into thinking we were actually in an exotic location. I was also lucky to find the opening aerial stock footage which help set the mood.

It was shot with a Sony HDR-AX2000 and edited in Adobe Premiere.
