In keeping with pandemic filming guidelines, scenes for “Christmas Plus One” were predominantly shot on closed indoor sets at McGee Street Studios.

Located at 380 McGee Street, this newly renovated 16,000 square foot production facility is owned by Juliette Hagopian, who also served as producer on the film.

With a long list of Lifetime holiday movies under her belt like “Snowed Inn Christmas” and “No Time Like Christmas,” Hagopian made sure proper safety precautions were implemented before and during the filming period.
