Then Came Jones was the pilot for a period crime procedural that never gained traction, so it was called a “TV movie” and has vanished without a trace. I was an assistant art director fresh off a Civil War film, so it was a slam dunk to do a bordello in 1899 Austin. We shot Paramount’s little New York street as Austin. I designed the Bordello, called ‘The Globe’ which was the only new build on the street; that, and the telephone poles and street lights. The rest of my time was spent generating signage. As I mentioned earlier, it used to be the job of art directors and set designers to design signage. We used a combination of vinyl and hand-painted signage so not only did I have to send out Adobe Illustrator files to our sign painter, but I had to do the color comps and vinyl callouts as well. This was also the first time we encountered printed stained glass. Our production designer found a service that printed very realistic stained glass on Translight material. We could run beads of calk along the lines of the print to simulate the lead caming of the window. The company had its own way of doing things, so I was not asked for any digital files. I simply hand-drew them full size and noted glass types from their catalog. It was a busy show.
