Being AV tech on this production has been very interesting. The technical issues discovered in the R&D week were frustrating to say the least! ironing those issues out, finding workable solutions and having the confidence to move forward into the production period is a great feeling. The lack of sleep and uncountable amounts of swearing at Apple products seemed to do the trick. The biggest ipod problem to overcome was working in a 9:16/portrait aspect ratio. This way of filming left us with huge amounts of rendering, which didn't fit in to our schedule. I had one Eureka moment at 5am on thursday and now I feel things will be a little easier for us. 

Towards the end of the week I managed to get a little time with the Riminis and had a chat about the week. This is what they said.
