Of Cameras and Lighting

My first experiences in the new Shepherd Studio have been nothing but enjoyable.  Despite near constant problems with lighting, and a few issues with sound and having everyone know exactly what they're doing (still haven't gotten that one yet...) the process has gone as smoothly as it could have in such an early stage of the learning process.  I for one have had an absolute blast, and I feel as if I've been bitten by the studio bug...

My classmates seem to be getting into this ongoing project as well.  After a few initial reservations, everyone fell into each role they were given in turn and tackled every project and problem with growing confidence.  Furthermore, there was a growing enthusiasm and passion that seeped into everyone present, and I truly hoped our instructor sensed that.

In essence, we're not so different than Hamish and his powerful, passionate and innovative style.  We may be many levels below him in experience and professionalism, but truthfully we represent him in miniature.  We are on the same path, even if we're far behind.
