A little exploring around Ruidosa last night and an early turn in at a much nicer hotel. I don’t actually recall falling asleep but I suspect I was able to get a adaquate nights sleep for once, despite a 5:30am call for a bus pickup at the hotel. Not sure how long that ride was. At some point we land at White Sands National Monument, eat & are treated to an orientation lecture to inform us what kinds of activities will get us kicked out of the park (almost anything but breathing).
(later on)
Well, another banner day for the sound crew. Although we were transpo’d all over hell & high water (that morning drive took 1.5 hrs) and pulled out the sound cart, jammed up the slates & the cameras & had the boom all rash to go, no actual usable audio was put to tape. Sometimes the shot just doesn’t have sound and sometimes there is just too much noisy machinery around to get anything usable. A waste of a day but still, a paycheck.
Still, I snapped some good pix.
