Love of Life: When the character of Michael Blake drowned last year, LOL set up shop on Candlewood Lake in Brookfield, Conn. Heather Hill, one of the show's directors, lives nearby, and associate producer Paul Sladkus says her husband, Randy Hill (a stage manager) helped with permits, security and other arrangements for the one-day shoot. Comments Sladkus, they "lucked out with the weather. In fact, we had to use reflectors because it was too sunny at times." For the drowning, a large boat was used to produce a wave large enough to capsize the small rowboat being used for the rescue. The shoot lasted from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., and the overcast late-day skies fitted the bill for the dreary effect necessary.
