What do you get when you cross 3 states, Ryan and Bob and a minivan? A beautiful hotel, a fun video and 2 guys that, believe it or not, still actually talk to each other. Read the rest of this entry →
East side, west side, all around the town…or country anyway. Lately, the staff at PentaVision has been blessed to travel all over this great country of ours.
SWAG: Stuff we all get, souvenirs wearables and gifts, (or whatever you call it), free stuff (as I call it) is good.
Debate all you want whether it works or not but I can tell you, you give me something and I will wear it or use it. I was recently on location shooting a project for Vista Host in Nashville and I was wearing my favorite Zacuto tee shirt. A guy walked up to me and started asking about what we were doing and then asked me what Zacuto was. I told him about their company and the next day, he tracked me down and told me he had found something he had been looking for on their website. A guy from Indiana (me) plus another from Tennessee equaled an order for a company in Chicago – all from a tee shirt.
Why is it you can have a light on for the entire time you’re setting up and blocking a shot but right when someone calls “Action!” the lamp burns out? How can it be that when you look away from the viewfinder for a split second, when you look back, there’s a car parked in your perfectly-framed shot? Who thought it would be a “cute setup” to have a dog AND a child? With lines? If that last take was “perfect,” why are we doing it again? How come when you just start getting to the usable portion of a great interview, the battery warning light flashes ugly red?
In our community there are many ways that an individual or group can help financially or by donating their time. During the recent holiday season, members of the PentaVision team and some of their family members helped the Food Bank of Northern Indiana sort food. With an especially difficult economy, more people are in need, particularly now that the holiday season is over. And at PentaVision, part of our mission is to be an active part of our community, by giving back in a number of ways.
We decided to capture some of the activities to maybe inspire others to give of their time. There are so many agencies out there that need your help. See what you can do in your area. Let us know, by leaving a comment, what you do to help others in need. We welcome your comments and if you want more information on the food bank and how you can help, click here: http://www.feedindiana.org/.
