Even though I'm not an actor, I suppose I've wanted to direct. Or at least create. And it seems that the gods have decided that now is the time. We have a project to create a 5-10 minute piece and our director (with the subcontractor company) quit. Since I have a good working relationship with the writer (who is serving as production manager), and I've done these types of pieces before (as producer), and I was going to do the interviews anyway, it looks like I get the call. So Thursday we fly up to scout the location and talk with the production crew (shoot is in NorCal). Then for three days next week I'm the guy who calls the shots. Literally. So there ya go...
