Hotels.Com Shoot in Kansas City




I love my job. This week I traveled to Kansas City to shoot an Infomercial for Hotels.com. I had never been to Kansas City, MO before, and it was nothing like I expected. We stayed at the Sheraton right in the heart of "The Plaza District", which had the best shopping and restaurants around. Everything was in walking distance and the mood was fun since we happened to arrive on St. Patrick's Day. No green beer for me, but there were plenty of people who over indulged to say the least. It is always fun to be sober and watch drunk people make fools out of themselves don't ya think?


Producers Direct, was in charge of this project and everyone involved was a "class act." (Yes, even you Steve Zeoli!) Our Producer, Steve Zeoli, kept a positive attitude throughout the entire 11 hour day, and was a gem to work with. I also worked with some amazing talent...Rich Hollenberg and Craig Burnett. Check out their work at http://www.richhollenberg.com/ and http://www.craigburnett.com/


I am looking forward to going back to Kansas, and also to working with this great bunch of people again. What a blast!

Just Another Day At The Office


I am blessed! My "freelance" hosting career is realy taking off. How luck am I to be able to be able spend my days at "work" surrounded by amazing people in some beautiful locations.
Let's see...last October I spent a week in Bimini swimming with wild dolphins. A couple months later I was flown to upstate New York, where we showcased an amazing eco-friendly resort called the "Mohonk Mountain House." A couple months ago, I flew to Iowa to hang out with the wonderful folks at Hawthorne Direct, and today I spent the day in the beautiful Sonoran Desert taping a promotional video for TriVita Vitamins and Supplements. The crew was amazing and the weather was perfect. Next week, I am heading to Beverly Hills for an Infomercial followed by a shoot near Seattle at the "Suncadia" resort. Oh, and let's not forgot our Hotels.com shoot the middle of March in Kansas City. I hear there are some great steak houses there...

When I was laid off from the local tv station in Phoenix, I thought it would be tough to find a job that I enjoyed as much. Well, it looks like I have, and I am so thankful...
