Sara Canning Reveals The Most Challenging Aspect Of Filming Superhost

In "Superhost," Sara Canning's character, Claire, runs a travel vlog with her partner, Teddy, played by actor Osric Chau. The couple's vlog, aptly titled "Superhost," is steadily losing viewers when the film begins. 

Given the intense nature of the horror movie, you might assume that the most challenging scenes to film were the frightening ones. However, Canning reveals that those were easier for her to manage in comparison to the scenes where she and Chau had to film snippets for their vlog.

She talked about the process of telling a horror story through the lens of vlogging in the 21st century.

"I find that whole world a bit frightening," she said. "I do have social media, and I do use it. But, more and more, I feel quite conflicted about it."

Canning has concerns about the long-term effects of social media on users' mental health. 

"I do think we're going to be dealing with pretty serious psychological stuff for a while because of the way social media is designed," she said. "I kind of find that world fascinating. There's the world of the influencer, and it doesn't come naturally to me at all. So, I knew it would be a challenge."
