Pushing up twice didn’t do anything, but a third push shattered the pane right under, cutting me just below my palm. – Michael K.Īs a camera PA on a low–budget feature whilst running a BNC cable for video village, I tried to open a window. Watched the media card bag fall from a helicopter onto concrete. Dolly grip goes to the end of the track and I didn’t leave enough slack, snatched the BNC port right off the camera. Grips added another ten foot section when I stepped away. My second big union job i cabled up the DIT feed from camera, long dolly shot. The 1st AC was showing the 2nd AC how to format a card, and forgot the card was still in the camera. We had rolled out right before lunch and shot a thousand feet of air when we got back. I had an extra roll? No buckle trip on the film mag. Went to lunch, came back and kept shooting. Years ago, 2nd ACing on a low budget feature. Moron tossed a 20 pound weight from the jib and crushed my big toe. That sick feeling in the pit of your stomach as you helplessly watch your camera burn! Not my best day on set. Watching our Arri 435 with Angenieux 24–290mm getting accidentally blown–up on the end of a Technocrane by over–zealous SFX guys. Someone opened up the take–up side of the mag and exposed all the film Awful day. I was mending some bnc cables and slipped. Stabbed myself thru the hand with a scalpel. Made a bloody mess of the camera truck. A couple of bike crashes that almost went really wrong in a very muddy/rainy forest and the Camera truck caught on fire at the end of the day ! The whole kit had to be cleaned after the shoot for the next day (of course). – Jason F.Ģ2 hour day, we had to pay for our own meals, didn’t get paid… – Jeremy W.ġst day of a shoot, 3 main cameras and 7 stunt cam to slate. Went to make tea and found the 1st AD banging a carton of frozen milk on the craft services table. Listed below are some of the highlights of their responses… What’s the worst thing that’s ever happened to you on a film set?Ħam start. Still, I find that the bad stories are usually the more interesting ones, so I turned to readers of The Black and Blue’s Facebook page and asked them to share their worst moments on set. There have been some other dreadful moments, but overall the good far outweighs the bad. Every now and then he likes to bring it up and pour more salt in that guilty wound (an atonement I’m happy to oblige). I’m lucky the DP was nice about it and we’re still great friends. I’ve never felt more guilty for doing something on set than I did that day. The yell from the DP plunged my heart into my stomach. Being as stupid as I was, I did just that. As a green 2nd Camera Assistant (AC), I was jokingly told by the 1st AC to flip a canister of Dust-Off I was using to clean lenses upside down and spray it in the Director of Photography’s ear. The worst thing that’s ever happened to me is a story I’ve told on this site before. I have a tendency to forget how awful the bad days truly are despite the fact that I know, on more than one occasion, that I’ve sworn I’m going to quit the film industry only to be grinning ear-to-ear at wrap. ![]() Wasn’t me.’ And so, I made the documentary in one of my most embarrassing times.It’s hard to think about my worst day on set. And so I’m standing next to her like ‘Uh I had nothing to do with that question. And so Taylor looks at her and says ‘I’m not going home with anyone tonight.’ It was like a stupid thing that Nancy O’Dell said. So Nancy O’Dell says ‘You’re gonna go home tonight with more than awards, you’re gonna go home with a guy tonight,’ or something like that. They made Nancy O’Dell do it because it’s her show. Cause we actually have the connections with artists to bring them over. And they were kind of smart to have me on. And we were first up because we were CBS, we had all the artists first. “I was on the red carpet at the Grammy’s with Entertainment Tonight, ET and Nancy O’Dell. For once it wasn’t my fault,” Elvis Duran tells his listeners and members of the show Monday, February 3rd, morning. It’s one of the most embarrassing moments of my career. Our very own, Elvis Duran, was in a short clip in the documentary, but not at the greatest part. The documentary follows her through monumental points of her career, as well as the moments like when she decided to speak out on politics for the first time and more. Taylor Swift's documentary Miss Americana is out now on Netflix and we could not be more excited about it.
