MARIETTA, GA
I went on my first film shoot. It was an interview with the co-founder of Home Depot. I went on two more film shoots. On tuesday it was somewhat like a news conference Laura Sydel, the wife of the Owner of the NHL hockey team Atlanta Thrashers, she showed us her "green" house for a segment we were doing. On Thursday was another film shoot. We were shooting a piece for the show Groundbreakers that airs on HGTV. Then I was in Sandestin, Florida, with Allen and his crew, shooting a resort video for the Sandestin Resort. We left on Tuesday 10/21/08 and got back late Sunday night 10/27/08. We worked every day, shooting just about everything in the Resort. I was there to help set up lights, run electricity, load and unload everything. Anything you can think of, I did. I was pretty much, the grip/light man. It was a great experience, and I learned a lot on this trip.
