BTS Pics: "Jordan Peterson's Ideology"
Added 2021-03-30 20:37:20 +0000 UTCHello lovely Patrons!
We just wrapped after a long day filming my latest episode, working title Jordan Peterson's Ideology. Here are some gorgeous pics from the set!
It was an early start to get into the makeup chair - Camille Nava is once again joining the Philosophy Tube team on this video to make sure I look glam!
I hired a gorgeous location for this shoot - a fabulous photo studio in East London with a bunch of different corners for different parts of the video!
And while I was in the chair getting my hair curled I had time to go over my lines!
We were very pleased to be joined for this video by Adelaide Sweetley-Schmitz, a provocative newspaper columnist who writes for The Dailygraph!
Adelaide is one of Britain's leading centre-right voices, though she is a bit... well, unusual...
I dunno, I think she has a tough family life or something?
There's a recurring visual reference in this video to the John Carpenter film They Live, though you won't need to have seen the film to get it lol
This is the main look for the bulk of the video - we called it 'The Angel of Mercury.' Long-time fans of the show will remember that my last video on Jordan Peterson had a devil theme, well this time we went the other way!
Here you can see it under the lights, and you can see that's not the symbol for Venus and femininity on my head; it's actually the astrological symbol for Mercury!
Stylist Brian Conway, who did the outfits for the last video, also sourced the costumes for this one
The video is about ideologies: what they are and where they come from. It goes into quite a bit of technical, detailed philosophy, so Adelaide is there to help flesh things out and stop them getting too dry
We'll be talking about Phenomenology, Structuralism, Poststructuralism, and a bunch of other big words you'll be using like a pro by the end!
Someone managed to catch me texting on set - very naughty!
I hope this one turns out well - I haven't seen the footage yet, but the script is some of my best work I think! I'll get on with editing it and hopefully have screenshots for you soon!

2021-03-31 16:52:33 +0000 UTCThis looks like it will be fabulous. That feather collar is a real thing of beauty (though I guess the the birds might beg to differ); it is like a negative image of the Coachman's collar from "Frances Ford Coppola's Bram Stroker's Dracula", the costume designs in that film were gorgeous.
