Netflix’s new young‑adult series Crew Girl began production with a two‑week rowing intensive in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, to prepare its cast for the show’s central sport.
The training was aimed at giving actors a realistic grasp of rowing, a key element of the series that follows a high‑school team competing on the water.
Lead actress Miku Martineau and her fellow cast members spent the intensive on open water, learning rowing techniques and immersing themselves in the sport’s culture.
Victoria, the capital of British Columbia, is known for its maritime climate and rowing facilities, making it an ideal location for the cast’s preparation.
Production staff emphasized authenticity throughout the process, ensuring that the characters’ portrayal of rowing would resonate with viewers and fans of the sport alike.
