"Lauren M. Anderson pauses for an impromptu portrait in the middle of Monroe Street in Forest Park after working on a video assignment at Molly Malone's Irish Pub on Thursday, March 26, 2009."
After work I tagged along with Lauren to assist (read: carry stuff) her on a video project of a harpist that she's working on. My two assignments today weren't very exciting so I was hoping that the hour trip into Forest Park would provide some comic relief, and it did.
The pub was an absolute cave, as predicted, but she was able to make it work. She worked pretty quickly to get the extra B-roll that she needed for the project and then we headed out. She has some early assignments tomorrow morning so we skipped the traditional Irish stout pints.
When we were putting the gear back in the car the streetlights caught my eye. I asked her to stand in the middle of the street while I made a few quick frames. Lauren, however, was more interested in trying to catch the baby bunny rabbit that she saw on the sidewalk and at that moment our impromptu portrait session was over.
There is nothing like some late night comic relief to make up for a rather colorless day.
