Sometimes the Best Reason to Shoot is None At All

So we found ourselves in between a couple of big projects and needed to take a small break to hone some skill and just shoot for shooting's sake. It's something we like to do from time to time. In the past it's led to great ideas and projects. Over the last three years, we've shot at the Vermont City Marathon and are now in preproduction and sponsorship phase of a larger documentary project.

Today was a gorgeous day. We'd been in early finishing up some final details on a coupel projects while scripting and storyboarding for a few new ones. We had heard that they were going to be doing a ribbon cutting up at Bolton for the new Wind Turbine up there, so we grabbed the camera and ran with it. Awesome day. And actually they had a really good turn out. Just riding the chair lift was a good diversion, so we knew we'd made the right decision. Got to meet some new people, bumped into friends....


And I don't think we could have asked for a better environment to shoot in. The turbine by the way is incredibly impressive and awe inspiring when you first see it up close.

Whatever you do for your creative career, make sure to take some time every now and then to do what you do for yourself. It's advice we don't always follow, but I'm glad we did today!!
