Shooting in a dot-com
Didn’t have much time to decompress after our trip because I pretty much immediately had to get ready for a two-day Scenic Fights shoot.
The last time I checked, we were closing in on 585,000 subscribers, which itself is pretty nuts.
But getting – and keeping – alla these subscribers means that we gotta keep cranking out good content.
So, the other day, we tried shooting in my buddy’s dot com.
It’s weird, I know alla these serious movers and shakers these days, and I often marvel how I ended up knowing any of them.
Case-in-point, a buddy of mine sold one of his many companies to Facebook a little while back.
I’d never been to his offices before but he mentioned that he had a studio in one of them.
Me: Whoa! Can we shoot at it? We’re always looking for new places to shoot Scenic Fights.
Him: Sure – have your producers reach out to me to set it up.
And they did.
Honestly, I don’t have the words to tell you how gorgeous these offices were.
Like, they had two bars/kitchen areas in them.
And we took full advantage of them – I almost made myself sick eating all the snacks there. I did my best to not have too much of the alcohol since we were filming.
There were snacks and drinks everywhere, but I – of course – didn’t have any because that would just be gauche.
It’s been a long time since I’ve worked for a dot-com, but being there reminded me of onea my possible pasts from decades ago.
I often wonder what my life woulda been like if I’d stayed.
Then again, I suppose I like how my life is now, horrors notwithstanding.
Even though it’s nuthin like I’d expected it to be all those years ago.
Location: freezing getting from A to B anywhere right now
Mood: so gauche
Music: Dear me, you’ll be older one day. I’m writing from the future and you’re doing ok (Spotify)
