We have Arrived

What's Up Everyone!

We stepped of the bus about 7:45 this morning and hit the showers. Today is yet again another eventful day. It's time to take all the brainstorming that we have been responsible for and put it into practice. After showers everyone was immediately assigned to their duties. Equipment was unloaded and is now getting set up in its proper placement. Our Makeup artists, Catlin Holt and Heather Long, are setting up their makeup room and studying the artists, also known as "talent," who will be interviewed. What that means is they are preparing the types of makeup they will use for the talent. They will also be discussing the lighting and background colors that will be set up in the interview room. All these little details play a huge part in the final product. One of our lead graphics men, Mike Gallardo, is doing some last minute changes on a few session graphics that will be shown during the event. Most of the team is helping with setting up the stage for tomorrow’s event. They have done everything from lights, to screens, to speakers, ect. We are working along side professionals, one of whom did lighting for the TV series "Fringe."


Everyone here is doing an amazing job! Tons of people are running back and forth, unloading trucks, setting up the stage, and learning how to be flexible. We were all assigned certain jobs coming into today, but now have found ourselves doing tons of other humbling assignments. It is such an incredible opportunity to see how this place is coming to life! The majority of us have attended an ATF or a BattleCry event, and it is truly a blessing to finally be the ones making it happen. Along with all of that, we are able to get our hands on real live production! Not only is this weekend a time to show all that we can do, but also a time where we can be sponges and absorb as much as we can. Learning from the different challenges we come across, following the guidance from those who have gone before us, and simply trusting in the Lord and realizing he is in control over every situation. So far this experience has engulfed us with excitement, anticipation, and knowledge and we are happy to say it is only the beginning!
