Director's Notes

Wednesday are the longest day of the week for me. With classes in the mornings, followed by a 2.5 hour night class, and top it off with shooting the TV show right after that it is exhausting. By the time I get down to the studio and have to do script notes and get myself ready to be live on camera I am shot. To say the least it was a bit of a relief to know that tonight was the last night of the semester I had to truck through a long midweek day. Tonights episode of the show was actually a fun one though. This week we decided to do a switch cast. Meaning all of us who are talent are thrown behind the scenes and into the control room while our usual crew awkwardly glams up to be in front of the camera. Recipe for hilarious bloopers let me tell you. I took on the position of director for tonights episode and it's funny because that's actually what I would love to do for a future career, direct live shows and events. It's a total blast and being in control of a creative production where mistakes can't really happen. It gives me a rush. So before going on air I was holding down the control room taking some notes on the rundown and I got a little bit distracted. Someone once told me, sarcastically mind you, that I have a one track mind. This was no different. I started doodling on the bottom of the page and that's what I came up with. A little guppy fish. Some times you need a little distraction here and there.
