Tough shoot on Barbie's yacht


All's well that end's well -- took three different shoots to make this boating scene work.  The cast seemed to take it in stride.

"The Gardener" continues to be challenging and fun, with more locations, a larger cast, and an ambitious story.

Obstacles along the way.

Been working steadily on re-coloring "The Doctor's Last Day," and editing "The Gardener" but have brought the computer to the doctor three times.  Either super slow or once, a sudden black screen, which led to pulling of hair and gnashing of teeth.  Now have a much faster graphics card, which brought me back to the doc for a solid state hard drive.


My incredible computer doctor even came over for a house call when more complications turned up.

But All is Well that Ends Well!

We are back to editing.
