where in venice was like a virgin filmed
Like a Virgin (song) The music video, directed by Mary Lambert, who worked with Madonna in her video for "Borderline", was shot in Venice and partly in New York City in July 1984. Madonna was portrayed as a knowing virgin, a figment of the pornographic mind, as she walked through marble rooms, wearing a wedding gown. It alternated with scenes of a provocative-looking Madonna on board a gondola.[42] She commented, "[Mary] wanted me to be the modern-day, worldly-wise girl that I am. But then we wanted to go back in time and use myself as an actual virgin."[43] The video starts with Madonna boarding on a boat from the Brooklyn Bridge and travels to Venice. As she steps down into the city, she moves like a stripper and undulated sinuously. She wears a black dress and blue pants with a number of Christian symbol embedded jewelry around her neck.[44] She sings the song at full volume as she watches a lion walking between the columns of the Piazza San Marco of Venice and along the statute of Saint Mark.[44]
Interview with the Vampire (film) Filming took place primarily in New Orleans and London, with select filming done in San Francisco and Paris.[11] The interiors and exterior of Destrehan Plantation, just east of New Orleans, was used to depict Louis' plantation, with select exteriors also filmed at Oak Alley Plantation in nearby Vacherie.[12] The depiction of 18th and early 19th century New Orleans was achieved with a combination of location shooting in the French Quarter of New Orleans and filming on a purpose-built waterfront set along the Mississipi river.[13][14] Production then moved to London, where interior sets were constructed at Pinewood Studios.[15] The sets designed by Dante Ferretti included the interiors of Louis, Lestat and Claudia's New Orleans townhouse, Claudia and Louis' Paris hotel suite, the Théâtre des Vampires (built on Pinewood's 007 Stage), and the catacombs where the Parisien vampires live.[16] Aerial shooting took place in San Francisco, with the external façade of Louis' hotel located at the intersection of Taylor and Market streets.[17] In Paris the exterior and lobby of the Opera Garnier were dressed to film Louis and Claudia's arrival at their hotel in Paris.
