Geezers completed principal photography in Boston and Shrewsbury,
Mass., in six days in May and June 1999. Additional second unit footage was shot in July.
The final second unit footage was shot in October 1999, including establishing shots for
the Boston sequences.
The script included 58 scenes at 29 locations. A little more than
half of the script takes place in present-day Massachusetts; the rest in 1939.
Geezers was produced by WriterDirector.com. It was written and directed by Peter

Technical Stuff
Geezers was shot using a Sony TRV-900 miniDV digital camcorder and Panasonic
ME60 stock. Sound was recorded into the camcorder using an Optimus 33-3017 shotgun mic on
mounted on an Ettore boom pole, plus a Sony ECM-HS1 hotshoe shotgun mic.
For stationary shots, the camera was mounted on a Vivitar VPT-360 tripod with
10-lb. stabilizer. Motion shots were accomplished using a SteadyTracker flight stick.
The Internet
The production utilized the Internet extensively for posting casting and crew
notices, sending scripts and production schedules, and publicity.
No scripts were printed until casting was complete, saving potentially hundreds
of dollars.
