2) As for us, we’ve all been working from home and somehow… we’ve gotten a lot done. We did A LOT of COVID edits, as well as quite a few graphic spots in the early weeks of shelter in place. We were shooting right up to shelter in place which had us shooting with masks, gloves and hand sanitizer before we actually knew what all would happen. We’ve been growing and changing the last couple years to include more capabilities, but who knew we’d be so busy during this time and need to utilize all we’d learned – and then some – so quickly.
We’re all now used to the new way of working. It’s not as fun as it was, but it works. We have been going into the studio for edits as of late. We have TONS of sanitizer and masks and have a new, safe way of getting lunches and snacks. It is soooo good to get back in the same space with people – even if it is 6 ft apart with a mask.

3) Pre and postproduction are all about communication. The pandemic forces all of us to communicate so much more through all means possible. Text, basecamp, phone, email and smoke signal if necessary. It was harder, and took longer to get things got done, but, it also has made us closer in a way…. Like millennials, on our tech all the time. Lol..
