FIELD JOURNAL

Behind the scenes before the webcast

by Linda Conrad
April 22, l999

The following are my attempts to capture photographically some of the moments leading to the April VAB webcast.

Brandt Secosh, a man of many talents!

"How did I get signed on to be
camera man as well!"

"I may have to get back even further.
Even with the wide angle,
I can't get the whole thing!"
A little closer, we captured Mike entering the VAB

Mike: "So what do I do with this mic wire as I walk away towards the VAB?"

"And, action!"

Brandt can now add
film editing to his resume!
Then with very little time to set up in the studio...

Brandt and Mike work through picture coordination one more time.

Mike is finding yet a better way to say it.

The experience of being onsite several days before a webcast to witness the activities of Brandt and Mike first hand served to increase my respect and admiration of this multi-talented pair. Thanks guys!
