A Peek at the Script for my New European Art Series

Показать описание
A Happy Birth Announcement: I’m birthing a beautiful baby script! And I wanted to share a sneak peek of what will be episode two of our upcoming six-hour series on Europe’s art and architecture.

It’s a blessing to have big projects and a lovely place to work while homebound because of a nasty pandemic. I just enjoyed an intense weekend of editing our ancient Rome script and, in a little 60-second burst of enthusiasm, I shot this quick clip to share with you here.

I love my work and am thankful for talented partners in the process. I’m collaborating with my amazing co-author for the series (Gene Openshaw) and leading editors (Cameron Hewitt and Simon Griffith) to get this script tight and to time. Less is more (unless you happen to be Ken Burns), and these scripts come in at around 12,000 words and need to get down to about 7,000. (If you hit pause, you can read and envision snatches of what we’ll include.)

Drawing from our rich archive of Europe’s greatest art — compiled in the field over the last two decades — it’s going to be absolutely gorgeous. Just this week, our editor, Steve Cammarano, got the rough script and began cutting the video footage together. This is a long process, but we’re committed to debuting our six-hour art series in October of 2022.

All glory to Caesar!

When watching this show you get so captivated at what he’s presenting and you don’t think about all the work involved. This just shows how much work is involved. This is just a glimpse of it.

Hello, Rick! I did a 30-day quarantine last year due to COVID. It was a tough 30 days, but I can still look back fondly to that period because it was made bearable by watching your very informative and relaxing videos (the Europe series). Thank you.

Hooray for adding a new dimension to your travel programs! Rome is the perfect place to begin with. No matter how many times my family and I have visited there we’ve always felt like we’ve only seen a tiny portion of the artistic treasures to be found there. Best wishes for your new venture. I can’t wait to see it! PS. When will the new programs begin?
