Spot of Luck

Earlier, early rise this morning to hit the streets of Lymington for some pre-sunrise filming. I was the sound guy once again and I got very friendly with a Tascam while we watched and recorded the day breaking. This was all for a fellow student's portfolio piece and I was asked to help out on sound and assist producing. It was mostly just running shots today, but a nice way to warm up into the project. Just as we were finishing up we wanted to get some action shots and a passer by came along and took this classic pic.

Rocking the 'Front back-pack as a make-shift sound bag' look.

The person who took this photo turned out to be someone who most likely retired from the TV industry and appeared to have a wide knowledge of the town. Especially regarding who owned boats  and who ran the cafe; both spots we were keen to film at. He gave us his card as we exchanged numbers, he later calmly said he could sort out both of those locations for us since he knew the locals very well.

Bloody good spot of luck that was!
