Defying Gravity: Women in Space

Working with world famous personalities like Buzz Aldrin, David Attenborough, George Takei, and others who have made their mark upon the world has been an undeniable perk of the job. I’m not sure though that I’ve ever seen so many team members try and find excuses to show up to our set (let alone bring Lego sets to try and have signed!) as when we had the opportunity to work with Dr. Mae Jemison: scientist, astronaut, and Star Trek cast member.

Working with Dr. Jemison for a HoloLens experience in partnership with Microsoft and the Smithsonian Institution for Museum Day was a treat. I helped to direct Dr. Jemison (though she wrote her scripts and knew her material and presentation incredibly well. “Directing” in this case was a breeze.), and made sure the holographic output was the best it could be.
