_the Challenge
Just a tiny few, really: wake up 4:00 AM, be a one-person-band camera department and DP, don't mess it up, be ready and positive. Also, to create setup that would look exactly the same from 6:00 AM to 2:00 PM, despite massive windows in the room.
Zero problems, but can we make it 7:00 next time, please?

_the Solution
I'm a broken record at this point, but in such cases, good prep and strong expertise do the heavy lifting. We've had previous work insight, briefing call, recce afternoon and pre-production call - all the right questions asked, all the possible problems considered, so on the day even with the smallest of crews (DP, producer, client) we were confident to quickly and stress-free pull off a set that looked like something made by bigger team and budget.
P.S. As client needed the edits the same day, we were asked to achieve perfect look in-camera. All frames you see are raw, untouched by any colour correction.
