Fans adored Ada’s perspective on a typical day of filming their favorite TV show.
A behind-the-scenes look at the Home and Away set has been provided to fans by Ada Nicodemou, who also chronicles a day that isn’t exactly typical for her character.
Ada begins her morning in the makeup chair, brushing up on her lines as a hair and makeup artist turns her into Leah Patterson in a video uploaded to Instagram.
Ada appears radiant and full of life without any makeup on and with her hair pulled back into a simple ponytail.
As her makeup artist exclaims, “Let’s do it, yay!” she says, “Now in the makeup chair!”
Ada says while donning reading glasses, “So, while in the makeup chair, I also learn my lines.”
Ada then enters the garage set while sporting dark sunglasses and a vibrant jacket.
She says, “So, I just arrived at the garage set, and I’m going to do my first scene.
Then Justin Morgan’s actor, James Stewart, stops by to say hello.
“Don’t you think I love this set?” James smiles in response to Ada’s query.
The rest of us enjoy the garage set, but it’s not really Ada’s favorite, he says.
Ada is then on her second set of the day, the exterior of Summer Bay House, with Tony Gardiner, another crew member, and “beautiful” director Chris Martin Jones.
She refers to Emily Symons, who performs the character Marilyn Chambers, as “the beautiful Em,” saying, “So this scene is with the beautiful Em.”
Ada continues, “It’s just a nice two-hander,” as Emily beams for the camera.
Things take a turn for the worse, however, as a lovely sunny day transforms into a grim, wet one.
Suddenly, Ada is filming a heavy downpour and grey skies.
“So, look at this,” Ada says, panning around.
“So, um, hopefully we can shoot.”
Fans loved Ada’s insight into a day of shooting their favourite TV drama.
“Thank you, wow, you really all work together wonderfully, thank you for sharing this Ada,” one fan wrote.
“Loved this!! Thank you for sharing lovely,” wrote another.
“Hi to everyone at Summer Bay,” added a third.
Wrote one follower: “Aweeee love Home & Away!! You guys are the best.”
“How do you remember your lines?” one fan asked.
“I read a sentence and forget.”
“Practice!” Ada responded.
‘Always summer in Summer Bay’
One fan wondered why scenes weren’t shot even when the weather wasn’t so good.
“Why don’t you just work with the weather and shoot when it’s raining?” the fan asked.
Ada replied: “They always have to give the impression it’s always summer in Summer Bay lol.”
“So that’s why you never see a character with big coats or umbrellas,” she added.
