CCN Tapings

I spent 12 hours in the air the last two days! Wow, that is a lot of flying back-to-back days. Of course, the upside is that I got off the plane and walked through our front door in seventeen minutes! I love living close to an airport. It's a life saver!

The TV tapings for CCN went great yesterday. I love new challenges and new experiences! Sometimes when I'm talking to a camera it's hard to have the same kind of energy you do speaking to people so it really helped having a small studio audience. The funny thing is that they told me not to look at the audience too much. The director kept switching me back and forth between three different cameras.

One thing that helped me yesterday is that I decided to speak from an outline instead of a manuscript. I always preach from a manuscript. I write out every word. But I felt like an outline would help me be a little less scripted. Felt really good about both programs. What a blast!

When is the program going to air? I didn't see it listed on the CCN schedule yet.

Not sure how long it takes to edit and turn around, but I'll definitely post the 411.

Teaching at CCN is always fun and challenging! Usually the turn around time is 3-4 months...Excited for you!
