As the saying goes, there is a first time for everything...

Spent a very pleasant time yesterday with [personal profile] jack_ryder and [profile] murasaki_1966 who have been visiting town. That isn't new - I've had very pleasant times before. We went to Weta Cave. Actually, despite intentions to go there many times this was the first time I have been to the Cave. But that isn't it - just a gift shop, albeit a very good one. But while I was there, I got interviewed by a Swiss camera crew making a documentary about the shooting of The Hobbit. That isn't new either, I have been interviewed before. What was a first was that this time I didn't freeze up and forget everything I ever knew or had an opinion about. There is probably a correlation between this and my previously stated issues with cameras. It may have affected my mental state that even if my interview made it to a final cut that it would only be shown in Switzerland and thus safe from any eyes that I would know.

As an aside, I talked to Mark, one of the Cave retail team. He told me that there are five camera crews floating about at the moment because of The Hobbit. Mark has become an old hand at the interview game. The Swiss crew were interviewing patrons of Weta Cave to get some local reaction to the filming.
