Last semester, I was offered the job opportunity of working for the Christian Medical and Dental Association for a television program for their medical professionals. I was hired as the assistant director to one of the great television professionals in the area, Professor Doug Smart. Setting out in the ‘hallowed room’ of the TV Trailer, I had no idea of the learning experience it would be. I discovered that not everything that should go quickly, does. It was a trial of patience when you have two non-experienced medical professionals trying to advise your director of over thirty years on how to direct television. However, this experience soon turned into a learning curve of what to do to assist someone experience in multi camera production, with only so much experience yourself. The experience taught me a great deal about the problem solving, the hard work, and the patience that goes into not only creating a great television work, but directing it. I had a great teacher.
