My Lovely Shootweek

Here is a look at what a shoot week looks like on my show....

I think Sam Memmolo comes from around my area in Boston. They seem like nice guys. I used to watch them on The Shade Tree Mechanic. Are the nice guys or is it an act?

Are you into cars Videoholic? I know when I do a shoot that is about things I am interested in it\'s a lot of fun. I have never worked on a show week after week. Every production I do is on a different subject.

Sam comes from there, but he has lived in Atlanta for a long time.

Am I into cars?  Well, I like to push the gas pedal and have it go.  Anything more than that I couldn\'t care less about.

This is my only show.  I work on Hi Rev, but only to advise, but they don\'t take any of my advice so I guess that means I do nothing.  hehe

Nice link.

At least Hi Rev pays you to do nothing, right?

NOt for long if they continue they BS they show on TV.

Heh, I have nothing to do with Hi Rev.  I did the open and then I had nothing to do with it.  I oversaw a couple shoots, but really was just there to prod them along.  Producing and directing wise though ain\'t me.  

The show is changing though and it is becoming a garage show where they show a lot of work.  Probably about 60% on set and 40% out of house.  

I realy don\'t like the business model of this show so I am staying away cause I don\'t see it working unless they bring in more companies.  They are just going about it all wrong IMO and it\'s going to falter.  I figure if I stay my distance I will be safe.

We did build a new set for the show, but it was done half ass IMO.  We\'ll see how it goes.  THey start shooting the new ones the end of October.  

Problem is these shows take a heck of a lot of preperation and I don\'t know what they have done to get ready for the first three shows.  

My show is actually going well.  The shows in the second half of the season are going to be a heck of a lot better.  I\'ve bitched enough to where they are starting to listen a bit.  The last four shows we did last week are all actually pretty good.  One is sketchy, but 3 out of 4 ain\'t bad.  Speedchannel realy likes them so that\'s pretty much all I care about.  Hi Rev on the other hand, well, let\'s just say the head of programming will be in Tampa on the first shoot day of Hi Rev...  

I feel a sudden flu striking me down that week.

lemme know when you need me to star in your first big time made for tv movie.

im waiting here man, lets get moving on that huh?

Which one is you? If any?

So what is the show about? Garage stuff?

It\'s a how to for car repair and mods.  I\'m not any of them.  I am the director of the thing so I am in a control room telling everyone what to do over the headsets.
