So Obama was in Colorado last week and needed to do a live video feed addressing the US Steelworkers Union convention. I got called for work as a Grip/Utility for the shoot and even though I have another day job these days I took the day off from that and went to check this out. It was a good decision.
Obama was the same in person as he comes across on camera, friendly, charismatic and seems to be the genuine article. After the shoot he shook all of our hands and as agreed upon by our little crew I asked his handler if we could get a picture with him. (I am the dork running back in to the photo and leaning in.)
McCain is going to be here tomorrow but I have not gotten the call for work...oh well.
