Starting today, we'll be periodically releasing outtake clips from the upcoming One Week Job documentary. The first is an interview shot with Kyle MacDonald, better known as the guy who traded a paperclip for a house. Filmed in Sept 2007 in Montreal, Kyle talks about the importance of finding a job, higher education, and how to take care of your little place in the world.
Shooting More Interviews, And Testing The Lighting Kit

Having attempted for the last week to edit the opening, I quickly realized: I'm still missing some key interviews. That said, January will become "the month of shooting follow up interviews."
In preparation, I've started playing around with lighting, something I didn't do during the actual One Week Job project. (When you're shooting on the fly, lighting just isn't possible).
I spent the last 5 minutes playing around with Ikea desk lamps to see if they'll work in a pinch. Here's the result below, including an adlib on my part:
