Cindy Rogers (with Fox 5 News), ME, and Dida Clifton (founder of The Office Squad)
On Wednesday, I had my first commercial shoot at the KVVU Fox 5 News Station here in Las Vegas! VERY FUN!!! I was the “official” spokesperson in a commercial for this incredible company called “The Office Squad.” They specialize in providing small businesses, entrepreneurs and associations with assistance in organizing and managing their office, bookkeeping and general administrative tasks. By providing services both on-site (within the Las Vegas area) and anywhere in the world (via an online “virtual office”), The Office Squad can provide the business owner the opportunity to concentrate on what they do best – growing a successful business! It’s a terrific concept and a truly great company.
The commercial was shot in front of a “green screen” so that they can add graphics and such during post-production…very cool. Unfortunately, because there was no teleprompter, I did make a few mistakes and had to take one section several times (boy, was my heart racing!), but we got through it relatively unscathed. :) In fact, the whole shoot took less than a half hour…not bad, huh?
Overall, it was a GREAT experience! Cindy Rogers with Fox 5 was SO sweet and complimentary from the moment we met…and Dida Clifton (founder/owner of The Office Squad) was incredibly laid-back and positive throughout the entire shoot! In fact, everyone there was nice (even the cameraman, Ty, was great!); they all made me feel completely comfortable right from the start (plus it helped to have Ron there to “cheer me on”). The whole thing was WAY less scary than I thought it would be!! Thanks, you guys, for making my first commercial shoot here in Las Vegas so FUN!
I’m not sure yet when or where the commercial will air, or how often, but as soon as I do, I will let you all know so you can watch for me!!! YAY!!!! :)
