That’s the thing about studios …

Once you get in them, you find it is difficult to leave. And so you end up spending a lot of time in them. Not that you mind. You do have to change your perspective from time to time, however.

This is the view over the director’s shoulder:

They were shooting a talk show. It is a little slow at times, but it is a brand new show trying to find its voice. Slow isn’t always bad. Anyway, this is the third episode. You can see it here:

Trick or treat

“And it better be a treat, hooman.”

We’ve learned you don’t want a trick from a cat. She knows I know this. This, then, was a clear signal.

A clear signal.

Live! On tape!

Sometimes we do a news show in the morning.

Which reminded me of the five-plus years I did morning shows. They were much earlier than this, but I still had to get up early enough to be here, so that somehow counts.

This was actually a re-shoot. And a valuable lesson was learned, just as it should be, in the friendly and forgiving confines of a learning laboratory. Which means we had a good sized crew back in the studio first thing on a Friday morning for a show we’d already tried to do once.

Later in the day we spent some time in one of our fantabulous new production studios:

The engineer is the lady on the left, and she’s presiding over a software teleconference. This is going to be a radio booth, production studio and a place we do podcasts in. We’ve got a few nice production set ups on the new building. Guess that means we’ll have to produce a lot.

In the studio

Hanging out with the ladies doing the hip and happening show:

You can watch the show right here. This is episode four, and we’re learning a lot in a hurry.

(They’re probably learning faster than I am.)

How much is that kitty in the window?

“Not for sale, hooman.”
