Orphan Black

To shoot the scenes with her "clones", Tatiana Maslany would act alongside acting doubles, and then repeat the scene with other doubles. These "layers" would be edited together. Director John Fawcett described it as a a "very time consuming process".

Co-Creator and Director John Fawcett has cited 'Memento' as a major inspiration for 'Orphan Black'.

To help her prepare to play her "clones", Tatiana Maslany created playlists and dances which she thought epitomised their character. She gave Cosima rave dance (with glow sticks), Alison ballet, and Helena was kept private in her trailer.
