How is everyone doing?
I just came off my first production since February. It was grueling. Long, hot (really hot) 90+ degree, 100+ degree heat index, days in the sun, a little rain everyday, mud, sweat, and tears (from sunscreen in the eyes).
All masked up, all the time. Had COVID officers, temperature checks, tons and lots of hand sanitizer, and box lunches. We had actors, child actors, first time child actors, video, photography, and live streaming back to the client’s home offices that worked most of the time, (but when it didn’t work, it was very stressful). We had one client that flew in, and the rest were remote. The workflow was mostly good, but definitely took more time as comments get distilled through whoever is on the remote client conference call on set, so collaboration is more difficult as there are only a few people talking instead of everyone coming together and making it happen.
Yet, we survived. I hope we can do more like this.
What are you all doing out there?
