I was scheduled to shoot a wedding in Bloomington today, but I couldn't make the trip due to all the road closings due to the massive floods... so after I had exhausted all my options and given up on the wedding, I drove to Brownsburg to meet Dad and Neil who were starting to bring equipment from Channel 6 to the church. We started to set-up the "control room" where everything will be recorded, complete with a brand-new high definition plasma TV. We set-up light diffusion screens, got the dolly tracks ready, and started building the jib (camera crane). I took a peek at the set, which is developing very nicely.... it has been painted and wired for electricity. The level of detail to make it look like an old, neglected board room is just amazing.
