i'm tired...whew.

Wow. I'm tired.
Today I directed my first "BIG" shoot. I've done in-house shoots before, but this is the first shoot my boss allowed me to take over with outside help, yikes. We hired a crew: 3 grips, 1 shooter, audio and rented some AMAZING equipment. I just hope I don't mess it up. ha.
End of day one, mixed emotions. I'm a BIT of a perfectionist, I guess?...and I know certain things I did today could have been better. But, all in all-I didn't lose my cool, and we stayed pretty much on schedule, so...that's good?
Verdict? I dig directing. But, I'm scared...now if I don't like the footage I'm editing, it's MY fault-haha. Watch, I'll end up ruining my own vision. wowza.
Well, signing off for now. Our crew call this morning was at 7:30am, so I rolled in around 6:30am. Way to early for this night owl.
Oh, and the WCCO Creative site is up. I concepted and partially directed the weather spot for the "bad ideas" campaign. AND YES...coined the term "PANTHER RADAR HD3D, IT'S TALLLLLER...RAAWWWWR" so fun.
Saaaawwweeet. wccocreative.com My team does good stuff, and I love them. Go team.
