Re: Lighting for video.
Hello,
Poor planning on someone's part. Last minute video takes a back seat to the show when I've got a set-up already in the works. I tell them that I'll help them to the point it becomes an inconvenience to the other techs, then, they git what they git.
I would have asked the Video guy IC, when he'd learned of this video project..? Then, I would've told him that I had not known about this video "stuff" until he arrived, and that the NEXT time he's involved with any last minute project....he should be Professional and contact every department head/system contractor asap...or at least ARRIVED EARLY that day.
I would never allow any non cooperative enitity from keeping me, or any other tech from doing their job in a comfortable pace for which they'd been already been prepared.
Screw him and his camera.
