I always enjoy reading "inside the electric department" posts from Peggy Archer (a nom de blog) over at Totally Unauthorized. She posts about all the lighting work she does, from major music videos, to odd stuff she finds behind the scenes of big-budget movies, the stupidity of shooting in houses with winding driveways to the sofas she finds by the side of the. She is a good writer and her nuts and bolts perspective is always a shot to the beaver board. Warning, Totally Unauthorized is mostly all biggish budgeted stuff in Hollywood and reading it may damage indie street cred.
