Hi.GO. / Our House Campaign
November 8th, 2012
Our House is wonderful organization that helps abandoned, orphaned, abused and homeless teenage boys get their life back on track by giving them real life work skills, teaches them personal finance and allows them to earn a GED. I was lucky enough to work with local production company Hi.GO. on the first part of a video campaign that puts a spot light on this wonderful place. Some of my duties as a production assistant on the shoot included:
●Ensuring safety of lighting equipment during difficult weather conditions.
●Assembling, disassembled and operated lighting equipment during filming.
