first day of video shoot

[silent07]

Did my first day of my video shoot today and it was HORRIBLE. I'm so out of practice. My lights were so strong my power went out. Thus, I had to lose like 3 lights. It was crazy. And my stupid self decided to plan this thing alone. Never again!! But I'm learning. : )

Working solo can be a chore. You can never stop learning.

silent07-

every production teaches us something. even when we are sure that we know everything and have every base covered, i feel confident in suggesting that some aspect of the gig will change and there will so be a lesson learned.

over the years, i've come to look forward to that lesson. knowing there is a lesson out there with my name on it always me to feel confident when that situation does arise. once solved/dealt with, you are then free to look forward to the next lesson.

ymmv

be well

and know which breakers control which outlets. 3 1000 watt lights on a 15 AMP breaker no good. 3 1000 watt lights on 3 15 AMP breakers good all day.

Working alone is tough. You get so caught up trying to do everything that you tend to forget one or two things.

I tend to work alone when it comes to the planning and producing of my projects and I always seem to a have an "oh crap, I forgot the *insert crucial item here*" moment. It is good practice and one day when you have the help you need, you will be that much better off.
