Hearts & Hands | Heather Tompkins

So this last weekend I worked two days on an NBC pilot for a new show called Trauma, about EMTs in SF (taking the place of the show ER I’m assuming) and basically  worked as the assistant to the script supervisor, running around from camera to camera and collecting various details about lens, fps, angle, etc. They crashed 6 cars and blew up an oil tanker, there were 11 cameras in all to capture the one shot takes, 2 of which got totally or partially destroyed from the car collisions, and aside from being sick and getting totally sunburnt and it being super windy on the highway, it was pretty freaking awesome. The final explosion made it on the local news and the awesomeness can be seen below…

Obviously I can’t be seen, but I’m standing in the big group of people in the roadway. The resulting heat wave was kinda nice.
