. . .have some fun at work.

Work's been busy this summer and we've had a chance to be a part of some pretty awesome stuff. As things slow down a little, an opportunity to create a few quick spots for rEvolution's new Social Assist program popped up. Of course, this was all done in sprint like fashion, we had two weeks to get it all done. I'm talking conception, writing, casting, prepro, shooting and post.

"Oh and that budget you mentioned, can you do it for half that price?" Which is a pretty common thing to hear now.

...alright, here we go. Now this meant I was to go at prepping this whole thing by myself (I barely know how to use excel/word so just imagine how awesome the call sheets and shot lists looked). Luckily, we had enough budget to hire a few ringers for the shoot day; Randy Korwin-one man camera dept/G/E crew, Tim Edson-Sound Wizard, Eric Gillete-PA/head popper upper, and Ebony Rogers-Hair and MU technician.

The luckiest break I had was reaching out to an old friend, Bob Ladewig, with improv contacts in Chicago. He came through with some great people from Comedy Sports Chicago. Not only were they funny, they also knew how to hit all their marks every time. I'm pretty sure we all ruined takes because we were laughing too loud.

It was an epic shoot day and everyone really pitched in.  Somehow, we wrapped early?  Who knows.  

. . .hang out in the garage today.

It was hot so we go started early this time.  Then the rains came so we got our mid '90's on and skated manny pads in a parking garage.  Of course, our warm up spot became our all day spot!  Randy channeled his inner Ronnie Creager and moves were made.  Also, we had had a guest filmer for some of this.  Jeff made his Sundays debut, thanks for the help!
