I won’t go on about how busy I am – it seems to be a standard these last few months – if 2012 is going to be anything like this year job-wise, sign me up!

Supertalent Season 3 live shows have come to an end which I don’t entirely regret because we’ve already started pre-production of Masterchef Croatia Season 2. It was very,very cool doing live productions (and very stressful at times) but the adrenalin rush  you get from doing a live broadcast is simply addictive!

Speaking of live productions – the company I’m freelancing for at the moment recently did this huge humanitarian concert on the main square in Zagreb (capital of Croatia) for Ana Rukavina Foundation which helps people suffering from leukaemia and works on increasing bone marrow donations for the Croatian Registry of donors. All in all, it’s a huge event which includes many Croatian VIPs (politicians, musicians, doctors, public persons) and is broadcasted on national television. The production staff of Supertalent was asked to volunteer on the project – help run the call center, direct and broadcast the whole event and provide technical support. It was a huge challenge, mostly because we only had a week to prepare everything – and it was all happening in the midst of our two final Supertalent shows! I think it was the most demanding project I have ever worked on. We went live for 3 whole hours and it was, for the most part, improvisation and immediate decisions – talk about adrenalin rush! In the end, the event was a big success and an awesome experience (with more to come, hopefully!).

There are only bits and pieces on YouTube, but here’s a little insight in the atmosphere on the square:

Immediately after the concert, we got on with Supertalent season Finals and Superfinals with Promenada Klub (theatre of shadows) as winners and Borislav Vranic as the runner-up:

What a year it’s been!
