Portofino Pools was happy to assist The Association of Pool and Spa Professionals in the development of this new video, explaining the benefits of their new "PPSO" (Professional Pool & Spa Operator) training program. We were hired by APSP to work with the actor and the director to explain how certain procedures needed to be executed so that it would look appropriate on film. In fact, you can see a little cameo with one of our employees working with the actor in this video at the 0:55 seconds mark.
