As usual, let's start the #BetterCallSaul ep 611 "Breaking Bad" thread with: The Board.

All the writers talked over the beats of the episode & I distilled the scenes as much as possible into these index cards. Some are stacked because I wrote too many cards & ran out of room. Image
The original location where #BreakingBad 208 shot Saul at the grave doesn't exist anymore, so for #BetterCallSaul 611 we found the field you see in daytime pic & plowed it over to look like the nighttime shots. And how great was @mrbobodenkirk going classic Saul Goodman?!? ImageImageImageImage
We were scheduled to shoot 611 late in 2021, but because of actor schedules I had to write the RV scene much earlier, & our crew had to build it! That's ace Production Designer Denise Pizzini giving @petergould @smadadp & me a work-in-progress tour mid-April 2021. #BetterCallSaul ImageImage
Only a day later they started filling the RV with props. Can't stress enough how amazing the crew is to pull this together so fast. #BetterCallSaul 611 ImageImage
Meanwhile, elsewhere on the stage, Vince Gilligan was busy shooting the script I co-wrote with @arielslevine, "Carrot and Stick." #BetterCallSaul ImageImage

Today begins prep of #BetterCallSaul Ep. #509. Over next bunch of days I'll try to describe what that process is (without giving anything away).

First thing arriving at the studio, a Teamster told me, "Banks wanted me to tell you 'Go fuck yourself.'" So off to the right start!
We start the day in a van with our Ace driver Steve looking for possible locations to shoot.
In the van Day 1 of 509 prep is our Assistant Director, Rich S, who schedules order we shoot scenes; our location manager, Christian, who finds these amazing locations; our production designer, Mark F, who makes everything spectacular, & our amazing producer Melissa Bernstein.
