An accomplished business leader, investor, and filmmaker, Carter Boehm has developed both the production house Ponderosa Film and the studio facility Yellowstone Film Ranch. Carter Boehm’s development of Yellowstone Film Ranch included a backlot with a western gold rush theme that includes over 28 functional set buildings and supportive facades.
An intricate stage set that is generally located outdoors, a backlot can provide a convenient and inexpensive alternative to shooting a film or television program on location. Although they may be quite small in actual physical scope, backlot sets tend to appear a great deal larger on screen, often showcasing an entire street scene or even several municipal blocks. Backlots are able to facilitate this optical illusion by employing strategic construction techniques, such as leaving certain structures only half built and cheating perspective using structures of differing sizes.
Skilled filmmakers can repurpose a single backlot to serve a broad spectrum of dissimilar productions. Furthermore, most studios with backlots feature production departments and support services that can handle issues, ranging from lighting design to food catering.
