Well, it was for me at least.
Yesterday I was in the audience for the premiere of a local filmmaker's documentary, for which I did the narration. I almost didn't go, but I'm glad I did. It it a very nice film and was very well received. Not sure if it will make it on the air anywhere, but it has already won an award in one of the festivals in which it was shown.
While I usually receive copies of productions in which I am involved, I must admit it was kind of neat to hear oneself on the big screen in a nearly-packed museum auditorium. Thankfully, I'll get a copy of this as well, because yesterday I spent most of the time thinking how I could have done this line or that a little differently.
Just wanted to share. |

No, I didn't say a word to anyone there, so there'd be no reason for them to.
Once I get a copy, I'll try to find a snippet worthy of posting. |

Don,
Good for you! I'm looking forward to hearing a piece of this work as well. I always find it inspiring to hear other talented professionals. And sitting in the theater hearing your work played back must have been a great thrill.
May there be many, many more. _________________ Be well,
