On Friday, February 20, we spent the day documenting the Oncofertility Saturday Academy, this was our third shoot day for this project, that night we had the honor of being on hand to do a multi-camera event for the farewell Gala at Pick-Staiger for the outgoing University President Henry Bienen and Professor of Law Leigh Bienen.
Tuesday, February 24, we did two sessions, one set of morning interview, and one afternoon shoot for B-roll in the scene shop for the U.R. produced BigTen Waa Mu documentary. Today, we are on the Chicago campus for the State of the Medical School Address by the Dean of Medical School. Thursday and Friday are scheduled video shoots with the Faculty and Students of the Bienen Music School for a different BigTen video production, about the NU Jazz ensemble and Jazz Program Director Victor Goines.
Seven shoots, eight days, keep those camera batteries charged, and if needed, keep “The Phial of Galadriel” handy for additional fill light.
