Thought I'd dust off the old blogger to share some good news: The nominees for the 2021 Daytime Emmy Awards were announced in June. Small Business Revolution was nominated for Outstanding Lifestyle Series.
This nomination is for season five of the show which had already been under way in the spring of 2020 just before the coronavirus spread across the U.S. and states instituted strict lockdowns and public health safety measures. Season five chronicled the impact covid had on the participating businesses.
Since season three I have served as a story producer. Just like the featured businesses, we had to pivot operationally, changing both how we shot and edited the series. Suddenly scenes that would normally be shot on location were screen captured as zoom calls. Normally our edit stations would be at the Flow Studios offices and tied together via a server. Like many other productions and industries, we devised an entirely new workflow that allowed our editors to work remotely.
It was a challenging season, so it's a pleasure to be among the shows recognized. We have one of the best teams in the business! Congratulations to Amanda, Deluxe and Flow Studios. Season six is already underway - can't wait to share it when we're finished!
