06/09/06 - HOW RUDE!
Ladies and Gentleman....film fans....Gaylon fans......Jester fans......anyone out there who finds this should know......
I am humbly apologising for the worst case of "taking for granted" I have ever commited.
I would like to sincerely and publicly apologise to Troika+ member, RUTH CIVICO-CAMBELL for failing to mention her fine work in my last post (Day Four Shoot).
I wish to inform everyone here that this was a drastic oversight on my part. I was so involved in the work and the write up and those IN FRONT of the camera, I commited the crime of not mentioning the most iimportant member of crew that night. Ruth Civico-Cambell.
I am truly sorry for this and an apology after the fact in no way can make up for taking her work for granted in my mind and not giving her the big up and shout out she so VERY VERY VERY much deserves for her work on Saturday.
Keen readers will know I have spoken highly of Ruth in past entries and I should have made much of her exceptiona work on Saturday's shoot.
This was even AFTER reviewing footage which on several occassions (and I have video proof of this) it was RUTH and not I that is heard saying "hang on, we have something in the way of the light" or "wait a second, there's a reflection in the mirror" etc etc.
So what did, atfer getting pizza in, creating a hospital environment in her own home (which we covered in blood and apple juice), and some exceptional boom mic work...AFTER all of that, she has saved several shots for me, and saved potentially hours of work in removing objects that I did not see on the night.
So, in a very humble apology to her, I would ask....ladies and gentleman....would you please give a massive round of applause to mask my shame and embarrassment....for The Rude Girl herself, tamer of The Jester, owner and keeper of The Ginger Zoo......
.....Ruth Civico-Cambell.
I bow down and fall on my sword in humble apology.

Ttttttssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....whoop whoop....tttttsssssssssshhhhhhhhhhh!!!
p.s. Ruth is awesome it is true!
Cheese, way to go man, you've always been one to give credit where it's due..and indeed here you are proving your worth as a mighty film maker who knows those around are just as important.
I cant beleive you never gave ruth any credit within the original blog on the forth day of the shoot!
You must have felt really aweful! I would have! HE HE HE HE, any who - you made up for it in a big way geeza. Standing ovation for the make up speech, well done sir.
I think you are the first person to ever speak highly of Ruth. She is really a piece of work, and a pain usually.
Ha ha ha Ruth. :-)
