I hope by now most of you have had the chance to view the video invitation starring our own president, Felicia McLemore. I thought I'd spend a few minutes to take you behind the scenes of the making of the video.
As luck would have it, we had absolutely beautiful weather the day of the shoot. In fact, for April, it was quite warm. Along with my camera crew from the Lottery (thanks Adam and Ben for generously donating your time!) we set off on an adventure. I must admit, spending the day amidst the fabulous surroundings of Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden wasn't exactly hard duty.
Felicia joined us as we headed down to the Bloomendal House for the opening shot. What a trooper she was! Felicia kept her "cool" even with the afternoon sun really beating down on us. Once we got into the rhythm of the shoot, a nice soft wind helped us "breeze" through the afternoon to get all the shots we needed to put together a nice finished product. Adam and Ben were brilliant picking just the right spot for each scene. And thanks to Felicia's excellent job reading the script, we don't even have enough to put together a blooper reel!
All in all, we had a great time putting this video together AND we spent a wonderful afternoon in one of the most beautiful spots in all of Richmond. So, what better way to spend a summer evening than with your colleagues at Lewis Ginter? I hope everyone will be able to join us on June 12 for what is sure to be a fabulous event!
