Asleep at the Camera

5/23/2011

My brother has helped the technical crew at Riverside Baptist Church for a number of years.  They always need help so I volunteered a few years ago.

Recently, I dined with a friend on a Saturday night and had wine with dinner.  I am not a heavy drinker so I had one glass and gave one to my friend.  He loves wine!

The next morning I was on a camera at church during the 8A service.  My brother was directing.

As he began, he called for camera three to do something.  I sat and awaited instructions.  Again my brother called for camera three to do something.  I began to wonder what was wrong with camera three and continued to await instructions.  I began to think maybe I should do something since camera three was non compos mentis.  The third time my brother called for camera three to do something I was bending over to look at camera two to see what the problem was.  I then realized I was on camera three.  Holy Mackerel!

I keep all the tension settings on the camera movements completely off to ease panning the choir, the praise team, zooming in and out, etc.  I was laughing so hard the camera was shaking and my brother suddenly cut to camera three.

I believe that's the fastest I've ever straightened up in church!  I was off in la-la land because of the wine.

My brother was a prince about the whole thing and we laughed about it later.  No more wine on Saturday night, when I'm on camera.

It makes the pastor's A Team look bad.
