For example, during the entire life of the series, the director with the team and the actors traveled to more than five thousand locations for filming. Yes, of course, in each episode there is an office of the FES, erected in a special pavilion. However, according to the plot, the main characters of “Trace” have to constantly work “in the field”. Wherever the script did not lead Olga Koposova, Tashlykov and performers of other leading roles. They worked and so on.
It can be assumed that the creators of “Trace” are not afraid to devote time to the street and funds for filming outside their pavilions to create a larger entourage. In general, the project team should have their due, they always treat all kinds of details in the frame while working with great trepidation. So, for example, all the roles of the dead in the series have always been played by live actors. To do this, they sometimes had to recover for several hours. And that’s not to mention the fact that the shooting of a scene could drag on for a long time, and therefore the people who played the corpses had to endure not exactly convenient conditions for hours.
Impossible not to mention another curious fact about the “Trace” series. There are still fans who sincerely believe as if FES really existed. However, this is only an illusion, albeit a very interesting one. Indeed, how much easier life would have been if there was a federal service of experts. Yes, and with employees like Rogozina and his team.
It is also interesting to note that, in the eyes of the public, many of the actors of “Trace” seem to have become one with their characters. In other words, many are sure that Evgeny Kulakov himself, who played the role of programmer in the department and a brilliant hacker, is the same virtuoso in real life. However, he is not. In fact, Eugene only uses a computer at a basic level.
Maisky is another matter. In The Trail, he has more than once given the impression of a fan of rock culture. So, off the set, actor Pavel Shuvaev, who plays the role of him, really loves this genre of music and even performs with his rock band.
And finally, another interesting fact: The Trace has a spin-off. The project was called “Aquatoria”. As you can imagine, the maritime department of the Federal Service of Experts became the main characters of the story. However, Aquatoria could not compete with Sledom. A total of 40 episodes were shot.
