12/22/07: Oklahoma!
Another "Jail" venue wraps in Tulsa, Oklahoma. This was my home for the past 6 weeks and it was an adventure, to say the least. In addition to working in a jail for a month and a half, I weathered an ice storm that shutdown the city. Thankfully, my hotel got its power back up and running after 10 hours. But, some Okies were not as fortunate and many of them were without power for up to two weeks.
Well, Christmas time is almost upon us and I'm going to make the most of my two weeks off. Merry Chistmas and Happy Holidays, everyone!

10/27/07: That's A Wrap For Orange County Jail!
Now that it's over, I can finally reveal that I've been working the past five weeks in Orange County, California for the show "Jail". It was an interesting experience, to say the least. The sheriff's deputies are a colorful bunch and I will miss them. They treated our crew very well and even went as far as grilling food for us at the jail. Mmmm... tasty brats!
Orange County Jail CrewIt seemed our crew left an impression on the deputies because they paid us the highest form of flattery. On one of our work days, we went on break and left the jail to go eat at a nearby restaurant. While we were away, a few of the deputies got busy making television equipment out of paper bags, masking tape, and whatever other office supplies they had on hand. Our break ended and we drove back to the jail. As we crossed the threshold into the Central Booking area, we were bombarded by three deputies and all of their paper creations. They pointed their paper camera and microphone at us as if we were the inmates and they were doing a story on us! It was a hysterical site and totally unexpected. I don't think I'll ever forget that moment. Here are a few pictures of what we walked into...

08/18/07: Suessical - Music That Won't Get Out Of My Head!
This week wraps three days of shooting with Get-Reel Videography at Pepperdine University. We filmed a live stage performance of the musical... "Seussical" (based on the works of Dr. Seuss). The performance included a large cast of children all under high school age. They did a fantastic job and I was personally impressed by the production values. Now, I just wish I could stop humming the tunes. Never before, have I encountered music so catchy.

07/14/07: Bailed Out Of "Jail"
I made it back to Los Angeles in one piece. Whew! I only suffered three attacks from agitated arrestees, which included getting spit at, a headbutt to the camera and a kick to the stomach. It sounds worse than it was.
In actuality, my experiences in Travis County were positive and educational. The people I met there were fantastic. They took care of our crew, made us feel safe and even prepared home cooked meals throughout our stay. The show promises to be action packed. You will not believe some of the stories we captured.
Tune in this September to see the show. It will air on My Network TV (formerly, UPN) and Court TV. No official times and dates have been set.
