Some Slow Days

So yesterday and today were kind of slow. We don't really have much going on at the office right now. Mainly we're just waiting for the shooting days to finally roll around. Today I did a little bit of work on a short commercial, mainly hunting down some sound effects online and getting everything synced up with the video. I also did get to go out on a real quick shoot with one of the main video guys. He's putting together a video for the technical college in town, and was shooting an interview with the owner of a construction company who was talking about why he likes hiring graduates from there. Nothing too fancy, though I did get a few pointers on setting up lights for an interview; lighting is something I'm terrible at, so that was good for me. Things should start picking up even more tomorrow. I'll be at the office bright and early, ready to leave at about 7:30am to record some of the presentations at a conference in Deadwood, about an hour's drive from Rapid City. Then on Thursday we'll be shooting a commercial, which should be exciting.
