recent work with !!! a bit embarrassing for me, but this was one of the spots in baltimore that would absolutely fall under "essential places to visit" and yet i did not make it out until now OOPS. i've been hearing the best things about everything and everyone there for years and i'm so thankful to report that every single good thing you've heard is true, and even better than described. this shoot was such a dream. thank you so much for letting me show up at the crack of dawn and take over the dining room for a day!!
the way that i PACKED that production schedule as full as i possibly could so that we could do as much as humanly possible.....never again lmfao. the weather was so hot that by the time i had unloaded my kit off my car, my shirt was already soaked through. by the grace of lady gaga everything was dried off by the time lights were set up but the dry shirt was not destined to remain because in the 15 minutes it took for me to load gear back onto the car at the end of the day, i had once again made an unwilling visit to the swamp gooch factory. learned a few crucial things that day:
1. pack "non essential" gear into your car the night before if you can.
2. extra hands for load in/tear down should Not be underestimated.
3. wrap beers are going into my production schedules from now on.
