My friend
+Nancy Williams has her own business,
The Dijitl Group, and does video & photo production. She asked me to help her with a video production at
Project Horse that she is doing pro bono.
I figured what a great opportunity to see what she does, help a friend out, get some experience and learn about an organization!
Today (Tuesday, June 18), we met with the owner and assistant to figure out what the plan is for tomorrow. The only bad part is that it will be an early morning shoot (starting at 5:30 am)! I'm not used to getting up early (even when I was working). I think tomorrow afternoon will be naptime since I'll have to get up around 4 am!

Yesterday went well. It was so much fun. Nancy got a lot of good video and I got some good pictures on our phones for her.
It was great to learn about Project Horse and I even met someone who is volunteering that who used to volunteer at the
Animal Shelter.
Chief, the Project Horse Ambassador and filming director of the day.

At the end of the shoot, our adventures continued (I can say adventures, because Nance & I have had several through out the years!). Nancy's car wouldn't start and she had to get a jump. The back hatch was open the whole time and I was charging my phone in the car, so it was at ACC setting. WHOOPS! Luckily, we ended early, so we had a buffer for when Nancy had to be home by. Nancy picked up her son and the three of us went to brunch at Panera.
The production assistant postion will continue since Nancy has two more shoots to do and some meetings with Project Horse!
I am so grateful for this time that I can do what I want and help out friends and family. I feel the best I have (mentally) since I was probably a teenager and my mom & dad were alive - before really becoming an adult and having the weight of the world on my shoulders.
