Lights, Camera, Action!



Today I was involved in my first ever TV commercial. The company I work for www.remainactive.com is airing a 30 second commercial for our walk in tubs. Today, we shot the commercial footage and streamlined the script. The commercial is only 30 seconds long, but it's amazing the amount of time that goes into THIRTY SECONDS!!!!

I was taken back this morning when I found out that I was the model for the commercial! They used my feet and hands- and I had to demonstrate getting in and out of the tub, and how easily it closes. Gosh. I wish I would have known before going!! It kinda wigged me out for a little bit. Just got me off guard.



Yesterday afternoon I worked for HOURS on getting the 90 words correct...and today-after shooting the commercial, I realize that I really need to start all over!

I'm working with really nice people, and they've made the whole process fun and easy. I look forward to seeing the results we get from the advertising. :)

In other news:

Gabe is in his dual-enrollment program with the tech college. He's been going for three weeks and is liking it, so far.

The kids and I are planning on going to Georgia this weekend for a campmeeting. I'm happy to see old friends and loved ones.

Jakey starts Kindergarten in ONE WEEK! Sarah starts Jr. High in ONE WEEK!! Rebekah starts High School in ONE WEEK! Wow. Just wow....that's all I can say!

The kids and I took on the project of making home made tomato soup a few weeks ago. Oh my goodness! SO much time and labor and materials....for 3 qts of soup. :(

I have been very slack in my photography. Very slack.

I am in the midst of lots of decision (aren't I always?) and am back to the drawing board on some stuff.

Hopefully, this upcoming trip will be the necessary distraction that I need.

Shine All Your Light- even when you don't feel too sunny! :)
