I imagined and told them, "it could become a spaceship loading dock, a car dealership, a spy or FBI offices." Instead, it became the headquarters of a beauty empire for Glamorous, a new Netflix series. I was allowed the opportunity to interview with Jordan Nardino and Kameron Tarlow, I pitched three conversions of the standing Good Sam set. They had a vision for their show's series, but I believe they also saw the savings in transforming the existing set to work on their show. Adapting a sprawling cardiology hospital into a high-end makeup company's headquarters was more straightforward than I expected. Two patient rooms were combined to become a bullpen workspace, a signature lighting element from Good Sam would be relocated and reoriented to provide a dynamic visual statement and a director of photography- friendly lighting component. An exam room transformed into a corner CEO suite. A worship room into a corporate kitchen. The crew re- skinned the central staircase, introduced new surface treatments and swapped medical signage for NYC-inspired branding. The biggest PATIENT ROOM. A. GOOD SAM PATIENT ROOM B.
