Behind the Scenes at the Black Square Shoot
While shooting Museum Secrets: Inside the State Hermitage Museum, which broadcasts this Thursday on History Television at 10 PM ET/PT, Director David Langer took us on a tour. The team was at the Hermitage to film the mysterious painting, The Black Square, and in this video we’re using replicas to create an interesting effect on film, at a studio in Toronto.

The Black Square is a perfectly square canvas painted flat black in the early 20th Century by Russian artist Kazimir Malevich.
