While we trek, we decided to
create awareness for something that we all believed as individuals. We wanted
to support TrailSL through creating awareness. So a video was expected from the
group describing the same and why we do this.
Trust me, after so many efforts,
we got one poster out which talks about it but then we were asked to provide a
video for TrailSL. This is when the tough work came to play. Given we had two
photographers (did they call themselves so? well not really. They had a good
eye), one critic and three beautiful ladies J,
the task became more difficult than it should be. From picking a place to
record to what need to be said to the lighting was a new decision to make. It wasn’t
easy with 6 individuals who had their own opinions.
Unsuccessful attempt 1!
We had lists created for our shopping and we were just ticking off one by one by now. Mine and my shopping partner’s list went up to 4 pages for each one of us J (Guess who was the creator of the list)
Usual dinners and hanging out
follows this routine which usually ran up to 2-3 am. Who says life is not good
when you don’t get things done?
Result is next day – a leave!
We try again on the next day at “The
Paddington”. So our “cameramen” bring their sophisticated cameras and fix them
and lighting is set and we repeat our lines just to find after few attempts,
the mic has not been working or the lighting has diminished. Well, we didn’t fail
at ordering good food and consuming it though.
Next day we go for our last
attempt. Record videos of our own self (selfies) and send it for compilation.
As you thought right, it was a messy affair. We finally couldn’t get out a
video for this before we left.
Unsuccessful attempt 3!Good news – We got our visas sorted today J
What else happens? Another day was wasted on shopping trying out everything possible that might stop us from freezing to death.
