production my son and I will work on for a while as he is going to school in Arizona for two years. I am <br /> losing two experienced cameramen as his friend is joining him in Arizona for the same school. The video <br /> 41110 however turned out well and the senior center staff was pleased with the production. <br /> Movies in the park <br /> We have been receiving a lot of positive feedback on our movies in the park. People <br /> who come to watch have all seemed appreciative of the movies we have been showing. I have <br /> been creating a preshow before each movie highlighting the sponsors, and displaying some <br /> general information like,turn off your cell phone,throw your trash away,visit our concession <br /> stand. <br /> Big Lake <br /> Our first movie was UP! We had a windy day that day and ended up suspending the <br /> screen on the side of the school building, not the perfect way to do a movie, but it worked. We <br /> estimate about 400 to 500 people showed up for the movie. <br /> Delano <br /> Our second movie was Over the Hedge. This movie we set up in the middle of the street <br /> for the first time, it worked perfectly! And we would be happy to set up in the street anywhere, <br /> anytime. 150 to 200 people watched this movie <br /> Maple Lake <br /> • Weather Trivia; Did you know that it rained 20 days in June? Well,three of those rainy <br /> days were Maple Lake movie days. OK, not all of the rain outs were in June but we ended up <br /> canceling three movies for Maple Lake,the last one we were all set up when we decided to call <br /> it. We did however end up showing Planet 51 on the last day of July under a perfect sky. We <br /> played to about 200 people <br /> Watertown <br /> An interesting show, we played Percy Jackson and the Olympians to a crowd of about <br /> 100. But what made this show different was the youth group that sponsored the movie had set <br /> up live music performed by local artists. We provided the microphone and speakers and they <br /> played their instruments. I created a special preshow for this event, not the usual "Kids show" <br /> stuff, I tried to make it more appealing to a teenage crowd. <br /> Rockford <br /> Sponsored by the local food shelf,the concessions at Rockford were by far the best, <br /> homemade bars and cookies played well to a crowd of about 250 to 300. As we were watching <br /> Monsters vs. Aliens, we were also watching the weather radar, a storm was approaching. We <br /> did however with the help of my friends and the Rockford fire department get everything <br /> disassembled and put into the trailer about 10 minutes before the first raindrop fell. And it did <br /> fall, I returned the trailer to the storage unit in Buffalo as the rain came down in buckets. <br /> Monticello <br /> Another well attended movie,The blind side, hosted about 400 people and played <br /> without incident. <br /> • <br /> We have 11 movies left to do this summer <br />
