BECA in India:Close to a Wrap

This week, upon arriving back from Mumbai, we finished up the last of our shoots - a major shoot of the Mission Education program, and some additional B-roll. We had our last production meeting on Monday, where we tended to details like evaluations and plans for getting the equipment safely back to San Francisco. Additionally, the week has been full of running around, making last purchases of gifts for friends and family, and seeing those monuments that eluded us in the midst of production.

BECA in India: To Mumbai by Train

Sixteen of us boarded the overnight train to Mumbai on Thursday evening, only knowing we were to sleep on the train, but having no idea of what to expect. A few of us loaded up with junk food to make sure we would stay fed while rolling along. As it turned out, we each had a narrow bunk, and almost all of us were on top. We were provided with sheets, a pillow, and a blanket -necessary to keep warm with the air conditioning on. And they began feeding us immediately!
