At long last, my Creative Genius will be unleased on national television. I will be appearing as the Negative Guy in a scene to be shot Friday, March 8, 2007 for an uncoming episode of Good Eats on the Food Network. The scene will actually be a family affair as my mother-in-law, father-in-law and brother-in-law are all in the scene with me along with my current edit assistant, Aaron.
It should be a lot of fun and hopefully I'll have some photos to post in the next few days. Can't tell you the episode details yet, but as soon as I'm permitted, I'll fill you all in!
They would only clear out the GA Aquarium for the big stars! That place is always packed. That whale is so pretty, was Alton in there with it? I bet a lot of people are jealous of that!
Granted there is not as much blood and guts as in the stuff I edit, but Good Eats is definitely one of the best shows - certainly the best Food Network show. Good Work
It's great to see these shots in your Blog and it's nice to know that the good eats series is going so well. I'm really happy for all of you at Biscardi Creative!
It was definitely a great day on the set and my brother-in-law really surprised all of us with a great creepy fisherman role. Besides being a world-renowend chef, Alton is also a great Director to work with and really made everyone feel at home. Gotta say, it was fun to be on the other side of the camera for a change and hopefully I'll get more opportunities to "play" on the set in the future.

Here's a shot of Alton in the Ocean Voyager tank at the Georgia Aquarium shooting a scene for the same episode I'll be appearing in. That's him inside the tank peering back at the Cow. They shot this scene on Tuesday. I had no idea AB was a diver, but apparently he is quite active in diving. Ocean Voyager is the biggest tank there that holds the Whale Sharks, truly an amazing sight looking out through the window he is sitting against. That window is almost 2 feet thick.
Anytime you can get a photo of a Cow and a Chicken in an aquarium, that always seems like a MUST for a blog.
