batskeetsWell, the last few days have thrown me the occasional curve ball, but it's all good, homey.
The shoots on Saturday were FUN. The first shoot was with this old guy who has been doing art and music for something like 30 years. He had a variety of awesome work, a really neat studio/home space, and a relaxed-and-groovy attitude. He was a cancer survivor and had all kinds of random stories... I'm not sure what to say about the guy that would properly convey his awesomeness, honestly, but it was a great experience. We did a wushu set with some very cool lighting tricks, and overall, it was a really fun, artistic, and collaborative process. I like his style and he wants to work with me again sometime, so hopefully that'll happen!
The second one was interesting; there were two photographers, and watching the way they worked together and interacted with each other was really funny. They were trying out various lighting effects, so they spent a good bit of time just moving lights around. They also used some of the quick-and-cheap lighting methods that I remember using when I was first starting out and using my old point-and-shoot camera. :) Overall, pretty positive experience.
Yesterday was pie baking, cozy conversation, and recuperation from the plague. I made the pie crust myself, and it turned out pretty all right, I think! Better than storebought, at the very least. I brought one of the pies to work today, and it seems to have gone over well.
Today has been okay and such. I've progressed to the Coughing Up Internal Organs stage of my illness, but other than that, I'm pretty much back to normal. I feel like pulling a big ol' HULK SMASH on a few things, but eh, it happens. :)
