"What I did at work today" is turning into an interesting post topic, one that deserves its own blog, possibly.
Yesterday, we set up a photo shoot for a newspaper ad to announce the opening of a new exhibit. The focus of the show is frontier medicine. We've got all kinds of gruesome tools like amputation saws, tooth extractors and so forth, as well as a kids interactive area, etc. One of the show's curators got ahold of "medical" leeches, who swim around in a large jar undulating like little eels. What a great idea for an ad!
Our programs VP, Greta, volunteered as latchee, as she is insane has lovely pale victorian hands. One of our museum volunteers acted as the doctor hand model and another volunteer shot it. The leech played himself.
Here's the "Making Of" photo:
The curator was concerned that Greta might contaminate the leech, but the leech didn't seem to mind.
Just another day in the life of a marketing gal.
