My show screens on the USS Ronald Reagan

A few weeks ago, I finished my latest 2 hour show for the National Geographic Channel (NGC), "Supercarrier: USS Ronald Reagan". It's a pretty fast show about the technology aboard this massive military ship, as well as what its like to live and work on the ship. All in all, a very fun show to make.

On November 13th, NGC held a special screening of the finished show (before it aired) on the deck of the carrier itself. Hundreds of Navy crew were there to watch the finished show, along with my staff from Indigo. My sister came down for the weekend and brought her kids, Gaby and Ben. They went to Disneyland, Sea World, and the San Diego Zoo. A very fun time for the kids - Gaby evidently told her teacher the highlight was seeing her Uncle Dan.
