One of my regular computer training and maintenance customers, Rita Sandler, asked me if I could direct and edit a program for cable access. I said sure and the following is the result.
We first spent a good hour recording the video of Jimmy Free playing his violin while I used the robotic cameras and the video switcher in TVCTVs studio B to create the smoothly flowing flowing and blending video of Jimmy playing. The next hour was spent interviewing Jimmy about his violin, his many spiritual experiences, and his choice to live a raw food vegan lifestyle. As you can see from the program I had to decide what to cut from the interview and that selection was made easily. The tale of how he came to be a ray food vegan didn't seem to fit the mood that was set by the music. Although that portion of the interview was great it didn't fit and was left on the cutting room floor.
