The production for “O Clone” is very elaborate. The
first scenes of the novela are taped in Morroco in a 40-day tour
of five cities. Beautiful scenarios of the Medina in Fez, Sahara
desert takes, and people on the streets capture the audience’s
attention. Jayme Monjardim is responsible for the direction of the
telenovela. Under his leadership scenarios are chosen to capture
the experience that he and his crew have in Morocco. In his website
he writes:
It was a unique experience for us. We shot in the Sahara desert,
under a heat of 127degrees Fahrenheit; we mobilized a caravan of
25 camels and 12 desert man; transformed shops in Fez into dressing
and editing rooms; shot up to ten scenes a day.
And always with the care to not interfere with the life of the Moroccans.
We could not stop a city (JaymeMonjardim.com)
It is also documented in his website that in Rio at the Globo studio
in Jacarepaguá, they built a copy of the city of Fez where
50 extras circulated in each scene. They also create the set for
the neighborhood of São Cristovão, Lucas and Maysa’s
house along with Mohamed and Latifa’s, and Albieri’s
clinic.
