Off season to-do
So, during the off season, some of the crew still have plenty on their plates.
Ria has gone off and started giving talks, training new guides for new places and started putting new books and guidesheets together.
Everyone else has a job, a life, and other things to get on with.
And I have tapes. From 2 years of working with the crew there seems to be a remarkable improvement in the way we handle the material. It seems we never really labelled the tapes with as much care as we do now until about January this year. Before that, which camera, and thus which operator was responsible for the "Blair Witch" effect was anyone's guess.
Fortunately, I was with Ria on most trips this year, and have managed to identify which tapes hold which locations, and with the dates enabled I can cross check with her calendar and see where we went. The scenery helps a lot too!
Now I wonder, that since we will be in the off season, and we don't really shoot that much in the evenings, will we be getting the same problems again come the end of year, where we shoot 15 minutes on one day, save the tape for use 2 weeks to a month later, then say to each other when we finally use up the tape.... "Where has this tape gone, and when?"
