you make me a better. braver person.
I can't say I am good at this, but definitely I am getting along well with my camera .
It must be because of the internship, I get to use my camera almost weekly, if not every other day. Just yesterday, I went into the backstage of a play the arts programming csb|sju is having these two weeks --- Macbeth.
It was an experience I looked forward to almost all semester. I knew the pictures from the play would help my portfolio and the project I am working on. It's something I didn't want to miss.
For couple months now I emailed the actor who is playing Macbeth on and off. I emailed him again last week asking about rehearsals. He told me, "since the play already opened, we don't do rehearsals anymore."
Ok.
So I contacted the stage manager last week and the assistant director as soon as I could.
No response.
Finally I emailed the director and she suggested me visiting the crew on Thursday.
I couldn't go on Thursday.
So I went in and tried to find the dressing room anyways last night. Just me and my camera. First thing as I opened the door, I got questioned by one of the casts if I was from the Record.
"No, but your director knows I am coming."
She was Lady Macbeth later I found out.
"Well, you better find her first."
I tried to find the director, but no luck, she wasn't in her office.I stood at the hallway for couple minutes and went inside .
"Do you mind if I take you guys pictures?"
"No!" "Not at all" "Go ahead!"
"Sure, I guess." Lady Macbeth said.
