since the ad has yet to be released, we shot a total of four interviews with residents of Florida.\u00a0\u00a0 Our first set up was in Orlando.\u00a0 We shot it outside to save time considering the other three interviews were three hours away in West Palm Beach, FL.\u00a0 I used a 400w HMI and 200w HMI to light my subject.\u00a0 A scrim was used to eliminate the harsh shadows of the sun.\u00a0 We knocked out this interview and headed south for West Palm Beach.<\/p>\n<p>We did our second interview outside as well.\u00a0 Afterwards we went inside to finish the day.\u00a0 Shifting from an outdoor set up to an indoor set up was certainly a challenge.\u00a0 Especially given the fact that time was not on our side.\u00a0 I suppose it rarely is.\u00a0 While I was setting up for the second interview I had my grip focus on staging gear for the two indoor interviews. \u00a0\u00a0I think that helped make the transition smoother.<\/p>\n<p>On top of all of this, I was transferring footage from the Nano Flash to the producer\u2019s hard drive when time permitted.\u00a0 I used the Nexto as a \u201cmiddle-man.\u201d\u00a0 This way not only did the producer have a digital copy of the footage but so did I.\u00a0 The producer was able to start editing on his flight back to DC.\u00a0 I just love it when you combined the Nano Flash with an awesome camera like the HDX-900.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16430\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16430\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
