A TOH producer's job is never done

April 30, 2008

Jen wells and Dino D'Onofrio

Hi, my name is Jennifer Wells and I'm the associate producer of This Old House. I do many different things around here, but a big part of my job is working with the homeowner, vendors, Tommy, Richard, Roger and everyone else involved to get all of the materials chosen, ordered, and delivered. This can mean everything and anything from roofing materials to toilets to countertops to irrigation systems.

During a typical TOH project this process happens over 3-6 months, but for the Weston project, where 75 percent of the building is pre-fabricated during a four week period, most building materials need to be delivered to the factory within a very tight window. Here I am with Stephen "Dino" D’Onofrio, the best cameraman there is, on the first day filming the Weston project. Oh, and I’m the one on the left!

Stay tuned for more posts from me, producer Deb Hood, and our homeowners, Amy and Pete Favat, about the progress at the Weston project.

It's always great to see the faces behind the cameras. I love the "Thank you house" on the walls too!

After watching several episodes of the Weston project I've been distracted by the excessive number of workers passing through the camera's frame, sometimes right in front of whoever is speaking. It looks contrived and amateurish.
