… Because the CBC is!
They said they found out about the shoot via my ‘blog post from just two days ago. I got a bit of ribbing from the production manager for drawing the attention of the CBC 🙂
If you’d come and been an extra – you could’ve been on two screens!
It was pretty funny because all of a sudden I hear the crew talking about me as if they didn’t know who I was… then one of them says “Mike – the CBC is here because of your blog!”. Just at that moment I’d been saying how I wanted everyone to record the next takes with their iPhones because I was strapping on my roller-blades so I could do human-dolly shot for the first time ever, and I wanted to have a million angles of me falling to the ground with $15000 of camera gear in my hands… instead I got coverage by the local news… that’ll do.
As you can see from the clip, I think I don’t look like a total spaz, and upon review, the shot looked alright. Pretty awesome ending to a long & hard weekend!
