The Production Coordinator of Bones Rocks!

In other exciting news this week, On Tuesday night I had the amazing opportunity to speak with Bones Production Coordinator Lisa Ripley-Becker in a short interview I was doing for a paper assigned in my Television Production class. We were given the assignment of analyzing the production of a television show, and after unsuccessfully trying to contact Heroes (they are on hiatus until they begin filming for the fall), I contacted 20th Century Fox and the Bones production office. The assistant I spoke to happened to be an alumni of UW-Madison, and she set up the interview for me. I was instructed to call back at a designated later time, and sure enough I got to speak with her for about 25 minutes! She was very nice and very helpful; you could tell she genuinely loved her job, and I was extremely grateful that she would take the time to speak to me. Other people in my class had a really hard time contacting anyone (although a few different students contacted various Production personnel from The Office) and I was just very excited that I had the chance to make a great contact.

So be sure to watch Bones, currently on Monday nights at 8 on Fox, and check out the first two seasons if you aren't caught up! I'll let you know how my paper does...
