More Discovery

I figured it was time to upload some more pictures of whats been happening at Discovery in the past couple weeks. This one above is inside the Discovery Creative and Technology Center, or DCTC. In this location, many of the the various discovery shows are edited in Post-Production. Tapes are stored and logged here, the building has its own insert stage (kind of a compact studio), and over 50 edit suites are housed, all within this building.

Probably the most exciting thing I've done here in the past weeks was shoot a segment for animal planet, Puppy Bowl, which I touched on in an earlier post. I've attached this video of an insiders look into PB. You'll find how awkwardly silent it is. The scene being filmed is the Kitten Halftime show, another show highlight, and personal favorite.
The cats, in my eyes, looked either irritated, slightly scared, or just downright confused. But take special note at how meticulous each person is behind the scenes. The video is almost dead quiet.

The lighting people, my buddy Phil being one of them, wrench their arms back and forth while operating the spotlights. The camera operators shoot with care and precision. The grips standby at a moments notice to jump in and aid. You'd think these people were filming an Opera. It was really a cool moment, and the whole shoot was a great experience.
