Action! Life in Front of the Video Crew

My former student, Cody Ebbeler, graduated a while back and went off to Hollywood to work on film crews and gain experience.  Recently he moved back to Indy and approached me with an offer to produce a brief video about my perspective in life.  Yesterday, he showed up with a crew of three other professional media people to work cameras, lights and sound.  We had a great time and I feel delighted.  Thanks Chris, Dustin, Peter and Cody!  You were marvelous to work among.  I made these photographs as they worked.  

I'm excited to post the video soon after they finish editing.
