In January, Castlegrip gave us another behind the scenes look of Castle through tweets and pictures.
He also answered fan questions. He said that they do not have playback on the set and they get the film the next day for review. When the cameras are handheld, Christopher acts as a safety or spotter for them. When someone asked about a normal in studio day, he replied, “this business has NO usual.”
He also said they make changes each season to the loft. In season 4 the wallpaper was changed and a window was added in season 5.
After posting a tweet about a dark set and receiving fan ideas of what was going on, he tweeted:
I laugh at some of the ideas you all have about what’s happening in my pics of the set.
