A Sunday Afternoon with AmyG

I've had possibly a little too much time to myself lately.
In school they called something like this an "experimental piece".
I suppose they're right.

Easter Dinner for One.

One Step Closer, I can smell the dream....smells like mashed potatos.

Hello again to all my friends, 

I'm glad you came to play,
the fun and learning never ends
here's what we did today!

Well folks, I am officially a Permittee member of the Director's Guild of Canada in BC. WHICH MEANS I successfully completed all necessary courses, showed proof of completion of a Film Production post secondary education, completed 30 full days of paid work with a unionized production and passed the Permittee Log Book Holder's Exam. YES! I can now start logging work days towards the 120 days I have left in order to be an Executive Member. What would be the benefit of this Amy? I'll tell you! Every major production filmed in BC is a part of the Director's Guild and they are not permitted to hire non union members if there are any union members looking for work. There are several unions in BC that fill an entire production crew, I chose the DGC in order to one day become a production manager. Huge, gigantic, enormous slippery ladder to the top....Thanks in advance for supporting!! 

PS Come out and visit the weather is amaaazzzinngg!!!

Back in the City

It IS great to be back in Vancouver after being out of town shooting on location for a while with a Feature Film. Top secret Title and Location but what I CAN say is that me and my fellow production assistants spent a few long weeks in the deep dark woods of the mountains. OF COURSE I love the experience and who wouldn't appreciate being able to work outdoors in the gorgeous province of BC. Everybody needs to get a little dirt under their fingernails every once in a while, get a little frostbite and cover every inch of themselves in a thick layer of clay and mud to earn a few dollars and get some Cheerios in the cupboard.  

 

AND!!!

Had some more visitors this past weekend as well! The lovely Uncle Jeff and Aunt Darlene all the way from Fonthill Ontario. I was lucky enough to get away from work for a weekend while they were vacationing in Whistler. Hit the slopes with Uncle Jeff then enjoyed a few Long Islands and Kokanees to get the blood down to the fingertips again. Great to see them! I don't think I will ever get sick of visitors, passers by or looky loos. It's just a great big reminder of everyone and everything back home that is just precisely the way I left it.

Happy Easter Everyone!!! Enjoy your short week and long weekend, keep fit and stay safe.
