So right now I'm sitting in our studio waiting for a client tour. These client tours often mean that we pretend to look busy, hide anything that we actually use to get work done and rehearse over and over in the studio without recording and generally not get alot done. I realize that even though these tours and meetings mean multi-million dollar partnership deals, they still seem unproductive as hell to me. This seems especially poignant to me today because we have my awesome co-worker Tabitha Russell in the studio today and she is kicking some major ass. She's so ready to sit down and hammer things out and it makes me itch to hurry up and wait. She's teaching a class on aperture, which at first I thought would be just like lightroom which we already have a class on, but seems to be a horse of a different color. I'm looking forward to my digital photography classes next semester so I can actually use all the crazy stuff I've learned. Before any of that though, I start a winter class at the community college on monday called "Natural Disasters". (its the only science class that doesn't require a lab - brillant!)
I also got a preview of our first DVD to go on sale today - Ben Willmore's course on HDR photography. According to Ben, 1 out of 4 people that attend his thousand dollar seminars will buy this dvd. Crazy! I knew he was a big deal but I had no idea that his seminar attendees were such fanatic fans. I wonder what the percentage is for people who buy concert t-shirts at a concert, it's probably not even that good. Apparently, he is not just amazing at what he does, being amazing at what he does has earned him a dedicated following.
