Happy What’s on Your Workdesk Wednesday!

2015 01 21 woyww photography set up

My crafting desk this week has stuff on it I can’t show, so I thought I’d show you one of my other spaces. This desk is in the next room and has my video and photography set up.

When I first started making videos, I set up and broke down before and after every single video. Bleah. Then we completed homeschooling and my son no longer needed this desk, so I appropriated it.

It’s great to be able to keep all my props and lighting set up all the time. The only problem is that I need to always leave sort of a mess of stuff in the photo booth to discourage kitties from taking naps in it.

Of course, that strategy doesn’t always work. 😀

He’s such a cute little helper, though, who could be mad at him? Time to get out the lint brush.

Check back tomorrow for dragon #3 in my year long series!

Wondering why I’m posting photos of my desk? Well it’s What’s on Your Workdesk Wednesday, the day we all go visiting the creative spaces of creative people all over the world. The blog link party starts at Julia’s.

  1. Of course a kitty would sit in such a lovely little spot, they know exactly what is perfect for a nap. The lights are probably the added bonus.

  2. Nice to have a glimpse behind the scenes! I think I may have the same kit with the tent and the lamps. I don’t use it though – I get better results with just a couple of pieces of white foam board and natural light coming through the conservatory. I use one of the lights on my desk. My husband changed the bulb in it for LED, so it doesn’t get hot. That kittie is sooo cute! They all do that, don’t they? Settle in the most inconvenient places, LOL!

  3. I have noticed that your videos always look professional. And, frankly, I don’t see the cat hair even when you call attention to it! 😀

  4. Although I got me a video camera for my b’day a couple of years ago, I still haven’t set up a proper place to use the camera well. I would love to make video’s of my work-process.. maybe this year??? Happy woyww and a hug from Holland, Marit #51

  5. Hello!

    I love your photo set up! I wish I had room to do have a permanent one but my space is so small! My Jimbo would jump up on it that is for sure as he loves empty spaces and thinks they are there just for him. :<) Wishing you a happy day today!

    Hugs,

  6. The kitty looks so self satisfied to be in that lovely little cat nap area you privided..lol It is great you have a permanent set up. You probably get a lot more done. Shel#71

  7. It’s true – I don’t think you can keep making videos all the time without a permanent sort of setup, and yours looks great. I think kitty wants a video of himself though. Happy WOYWW! Sandy Leigh #59

  8. I am laughing at your new lighted cat bed. I think kitty is posing for some photographs. How nice to have a space that you don’t have to set up and break down every time. Judy #76

  9. What a cute photography assistant! I need to do better at my photos for my blog but doubt I will ever be this organised!
    Thanks for shaing

  10. I am laughing so hard! Before I even got to the photo of the cat I was thinking I could not have that set up as the cats would think is was a new napping place. I scroll down and there is your cat! So, so funny! Thank you for stopping by my blog! Diane #46 WOYWW

  11. It is interesting for me to see your setup, as I was thinking about doing something like that. It is much easier having a permanent place. Is your red headed star bookable? Very attractive with those yellow flowers 🙂 !
    Thank you for your earlier visit!
    Hugs

  12. How can you get mad at that he is so comfortable and beautiful, he is no innocent ever though he thinks he is. I have an orange cat too apart from Yoda and I love him to bits this is what he would do.

    Thanks for the smiles and sharing.

    Hugs Eliza & Yoda 35
    Happy WOYWW

  13. Beautiful fur baby!
    My cats would appropriate the photo tent like the do every box, closet, cabinet etc around here! Cats are so funny sometimes. I take photos of my desk and usually one or the other has to be in the picture. Have a great week. Vickie#33

  14. They really do like the most unlikely places don’t they..am sure it’s something about being the centre of attention!
