Kardashians Get New iPhones Weekly to Safely Film KUWTK in Quarantine

The Kardashian household is making it much easier to stay up to date with their lives.

While some truth reveals and films have actually postponed production since of the coronavirus, Kris Jenner and the rest of the Kardashians are creating methods to provide the material their fans so desire. Keeping Up With the Kardashians’ executive manufacturer Farnaz Farjam informs Elle that in the early days of the pandemic, she and the momager started to conceptualize concepts that would enable them to continue recording while likewise making sure the health and wellness of all included. After some consideration, Jenner proposed that the stars movie themselves. 

At initially, this sounded basic enough, however Farnaz exposes that making the switch from a team to self-recording has actually been a “big to-do.”

“If Kris gets frustrated and goes out of the video camera angle, it’s not like we can follow her and continue shooting. She needs to return onto the screen and describe [why she walked away],” she discusses. “It’s less fly-on-the-wall, because we have to give them direction and they have to be more informative with us… But because this is the Kardashians and they’re entertaining regardless, it will be a fun watch for people.”

Initially, Kim Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian and Khloe Kardashian would tape their video and share it to an album, however the production group recognized this wasn’t possible because individuals are going to get “sick of seeing” the low-grade video. 

So Farnaz states they started fallback: “She hired a director of photography and a technician, who put on a precautionary hazmat suit and configured brightly-lit rooms in Kim’s self-described ‘minimalist monastery’ mansion and in Khloé’s Calabasas home. There they set up phone-friendly tripods, which were carefully cleaned with sanitary wipes to combat the transfer of any germs. The family waited 24 hours before entering the rooms to further avoid any potential COVID-19 contamination,” Elle composes.

Difficulties aside, this brand-new kind of recording has actually remarkably resulted in a brand-new sincerity with the household, which fans will have the ability to witness. Farnaz states, “Sometimes you’ll hear them mumbling under their breath, ‘Who knew a camera person’s job would be so hard?!'”

The just other modification in their production has actually been the intro of brand-new iPhones. According to the EP, a showrunner exchanges brand-new iPhones for the ones consisting of the video. In overall, the Kardashians record around 16 hours of video, although it differs by relative. 

Unsurprisingly, Kourtney is the relative to tape the least, as “she’s trying to take a detox a little bit from her phone,” according to Farnaz.

On the other end of the spectrum is mother-of-four and lawyer-in-training, Kim Kardashian. The EP teases a big quantity of the video will originate from the Kardashian-West house, consisting of Kim’s efforts to homeschool North West and Saint West. She states, “Watching Kim juggle four kids will be really relatable. No matter how big her house is, four kids is four kids. It’s a lot.”

In addition, Farjam guarantees audiences will have the ability to witness how Khloe’s ex Tristan Thompson “definitely stepped up” and revealed “a way more mature side of himself” throughout these tough times. 

The reveal returns in September, however for now fans can view all their preferred episodes here!
