The Mr. Peevy Show Interview

 

 

Summer of 2004

 

While preparing for a television interview on the Dayton cable-based, Mr. Peevy Show, I learned there is a lot more to the making of a television show than I ever imagined.
The stage must be just right, the sound must be tested about a thousand times...
Lights and camera angles must be tested and reset until everything is perfect...
Finally, all the preparations are done and it's time to shoot!

Lights, camera . . . wait!  Where's Carl? lol

   
   
The interview went real well . . . it was completed in a single take.  Fortunately, I was second in line to get taped for the show, and I noticed how hot the man before me was while in front of all those lights.  He had to redo his part of the segment a second time, and the sweat was running down his face like a river.  I made my mind up right then and there that the "Fleet of Angels" interview was going to be accomplished in a single take!  MAN, where those lights hot!

Thanks, Ardella!  You taught me what it takes to make it in television, and for that I will always be grateful.  In my opinion, you're the best teacher in Dayton!
