How the Parks and Recreation Reunion Special Came Together
with playing key roles in getting the special together. Since everybody was adhering to social distancing measures apart, production sent the cast tripods, iPhones, lights and mics. Then Schur, Sackett, Holland, Collins and occasionally an editor would zoom through a computer on the side of the actor and watch as they recorded their parts.
"They had to be their own camera people. They had to hit record and then stop, and they had to take themselves and say, take three and then clap for sound," Schur explained."So, it was really slow and laborious." So, how quickly did this all come together from conversation with Igbokwe to finished product?"I'm trying to remember. It's very hard to remember the actual date, because time has no meaning anymore," Schur joked. The cast spent four days filming their parts and then footage went to the editors andgraphics team who"did a ton of graphics and a ton of visual effects to make it not look like everyone was just sitting alone in their houses staring at the computer.
"I mean, beginning to end it was, I don't know, from the very first conversation I had with Pearlena to the time that we were done with it…I don't know, three weeks total, I think? Something like that.
