It's a good thing I didn't have to get audio when I went to my neighborhood pool this morning. Trucks were roaring nearby, two guys were blowing leaves and mowing the lawn, and sound gathering would have been Hell. Image gathering was no picnic either: the kids practicing for the swim team were in a constant swirl of motion and it was hard to know what to focus on. Most interesting of all was the editorial vertigo I suffered upon returning from this shoot: I realized I can't articulate why I like a shot (or don't) the way I can confidently describe why I like a cut of tape. All in all, an interesting experience.
