A 48-hour Day

So, the past 2 days, I worked 13 hours per day and got about 4 hours of sleep in between. I had to be at work at 7am on both days, and got off at 7pm on Tuesday and 6pm today, just enough time for dinner, a little relaxing, and getting ready for bed. Fun, huh? C'est la vie. But it was fun, the shooting part, I mean. Since we were doing portrait shots at UCLA, as the assistant my job was to entertain the people/subjects and move lights around. So I had conversations with the UCLA business school students and we could talk about pretty much anything. It was great :)

Here are a few shots of shoot.

Okay, this isn't the most interesting shot, but we were busy so I didn't really have time


Our crowded table that we stuffed some of our expensive equipment on. I got to man it while they shot some other stuff outside.


Makeup GALORE. Our professional makeup artist's (who is AWESOME) kit. Yup, there is even some makeup for the guys. How glamourous ;)


One of the huge houses we passed on our way to UCLA. There was a production going on there, and that house was MASSIVE! I'm sure it wasn't the biggest one around, but it was pretty dang close


K, so this isn't really at the main site that we shot at, but it's in the UCLA library, and it's a REAL stock machine from back in the day. I don't know when, but I thought it was cool. Also, I got to go on top of one of the roofs and UCLA is MASSIVE!! And the buildings are so cool-looking. I really want to go exploring there when I have time.

There are also some perks to my apartment. For example:

I got to see this from my apartment balcony (not the BEST view, but pretty reasonable for the price)...


and get greeted by this the second I come home :) She's so cute and energetic and just follows me to my room and hops on my bed as if to say "play with me!!" I love it! Dogs are the best :)

These are all just taken on my camera phone, but I should start to shoot my own stuff (more interesting, haha) in the studio within the next few weeks here, so keep your eyes peeled for that!
