It's A Wrap!

It's seems as if my trip to California was done as quick as you can say, "It's a Wrap"! The whole experience blew by, but I brought home some real special memories and a few life lessons.

I won't bore you with every detail of my short lived trip to Cali. Quite honestly it's a bit surreal and I have yet to process that the trip even happened at all!! The highlights were definitely meeting new people - especially Teri E. (who I later learned in the first evening is also a believer), visiting Newport Beach and observing the active morning life of surfers, and experiencing the behind the scenes that happens for a commercial shoot.

Did I really walk up and down Newport Beach just yesterday? The charm of the homes decorating the beachfront gave lot's for my eyes to feast upon, while I was impressed with the variety of people that ventured out early in the morning to surf...bearded men, tanned-leathery ladies and of course the youthful adventurers. It was difficult to pull away, but I had to get back to the hotel to prepare for my scheduled set time.

Once at the studio, things moved fast. Try this dress on. Now try this top. Outfit gets approved and you are in the hair and makeup chair. Then the director comes in and give you a few ground rules and you are up. I am getting nervous all over again just writing about it. It's warm on set, which in this case was ALL green. Lights were everywhere and of course there was the camera! Then it was up to the director to ask the questions and my job was to respond with clear, enthusiastic tidbits on why I like Vitacoast. Mom-brain definitely kicked in more times than I'd like to really admit, but I had a blast telling the camera my thoughts on Vitacost.

We are supposed to receive the finished product on dvd through the mail. I look forward to seeing if I made the cut! Now I am home and back to the real world. Here are a couple of before and after shots. Thanks for reading!!
