A 12-hour shoot with a 5 AM call time on an icy winter morning in Conshohocken….It could have been a miserable day! But my crew and I actually had a lot of fun working with Alan Kaplan, founder and CEO of Kaplan Partners, as he interviewed some of industry’s top movers and shakers. It’s always nice to see a crew click with the talent. Of course the Packafoma crew also demonstrated their technical expertise and professionalism throughout a long day! My thanks to Ben and Ashlee Goodman at Ben Goodman Creative for hiring us.
