But that isn't to say it isn't stressfull of difficult mentally. The most exhausted I have ever been was when I was pushing dolly. I have never been closer to walking off a job and crying uncle! If it wasn't for a phone call to AR I absolutely would have quit! And like an idiot I am about to start 9 weeks of a series as "A" dolly. This is NOT what I want to do for a living. <BR/><BR/>I think it all boils down to the fact that as a key you can kinda "hide" behind your crew; if they look good, so do you. As a dolly grip there is no where to hide, and lots of very highly paid people count on you moment to moment to be 100% on your game.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18888640.post-66265067670385191272007-11-20T20:17:00.000-08:002007-11-20T20:17:00.000-08:00Why do you think I never wanted to be a Propmaster...Why do you think I never wanted to be a Propmaster? Working as the assistant was all I needed. There's a point at which all that extra money doesn't mean a hill of beans and my ego was perfectly content with the "Assistant" in front of it.Drewpropshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03016315071844030689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18888640.post-48353963082593791762007-11-18T11:39:00.000-08:002007-11-18T11:39:00.000-08:00I'll second that motionI'll second that motionAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
