The Magic of Sleep
I made it through the Creative Bug
shoot last week for creativebug.com. It was a close call, with only a few days to complete
the prep—fabric was late to arrive. Ashley was out sick and Karen had
other obligations, so I was short-staffed to boot. Mom to the rescue.
She came over and cut out pillow pieces for hours. (Extra amazing, as my
dad's in the hospital with a broken hip right now—yikes!) And I called
in some freelance help as well for yet more cutting—there were lots of
step-outs to prepare.
We made it. I even got three hours of sleep. Let's just hope the recording doesn't pick up my puffy, bloodshot eyes.
What a delightful film crew Creative Bug has: two camera operators, a
sound technician, and an artist's coach—to help me stay organized and
coherrent. If only we could keep her around, right? I wish I'd had the chance to get to know them all better. I
did all of the talking for hours straight.
Perhaps we will collaborate on future online classes. Next time, with
more sleep. You'll watch those ones and say, "Wow, Heather just got 5
years younger in this new video."
The magic of sleep.
