ok, i did a road trip to yorkton today/had to buy a meat saw, ya all... (was listening to blue collar radio on sirius, hence the 'ya all').). stopped at the superstore for a few food items, and the lady ahead of me was buying loads of 'stouffer's lean cuisine'
i retro'd back to one of the most difficult ad shoots i've ever done. it was for a NY ad agency / the client was stouffer's lean cuisine.
so this is the shot. took about 5 weeks of scouting/casting/fighting tooth and nail, but we got the shot. we rented the entire cafe for about 5 grand, had 50 or so extras, and a water truck or two (for the wet sidewalk look). can't say i miss those battles.....

I remember when you did that picture-it was a great triumph actually-things always are when you work hard and succeed.cw
The shot was well worth the effort.

yes, and the embarrassing part of it all was when i use to hang around the frozen food section and tell people i was the guy who shot the photo on their lean cuisine........
And somebody said you didn't like attention!! gv
...funny...I can visualize that whole scene in the frozen food section playing out...

gv, i try and restrict my 'prima donna' to the frozen food aisles.... it's a battle.....
I have been listening to the same channel on Sirius Radio on my 1 hour drive to and from Coquitlam every a.m. / p.m. It is a great mood enhancer and sets the tone for the day. How can you be cranky with traffic/bridges/oceans/rivers/mountains when you have been entertained by LIFE's nuances set to comedy...

getteer done!!
