What a beautiful morning off Magnolia Beach

There is Hope. From Lin Chandler

Hi again… This isn’t a great image, but these little guys have been growing on the other side of the front doors for weeks as well here at 222 Arts & Wellness Center, out on Eastern Ave. What little soldiers they are! Some are hyacinths, some snow crocus…. the ground feels like cement to me! Enjoy! Lin Chandler

Heather At Menage Gallery Gives The Joint A Facelift

You look up the word worker bee in the dictionary and you see a picture of Heather Demarkis.  The broad just doesn’t stop.  Buzzing around sweping in front of the building, buzzing around dusting, buzzing around painting. 

She’s a good one that Heather Demarkis. 

A real asset to Gloucester’s Downtown. Buzzzzzzzzzzzz!

Fort Square Cafe Linguica Omelet

YUM YUM YUM YUM YUM! 

Always a great breakfast.  Always great conversation.  Always real Gloucester people hanging out.  A real community breakfast joint in the heart of Fort Square.   I love this place.

Behind the Scenes – taping GMG at Gallo Productions – Part 1

This behind the scenes is a sort clip of some of the initial set up that goes into the taping process.  There are many instructions, and setting up lighting, microphones, where to sit, and most important WHAT NOT TO DO.

.

Gallo Productions and Joe Langhan

Yesterday morning we banged out three interview style short videos at Gallo Productions located at 11 Center St. 

The team of Joe Langhan who was involved with starting the Food Network and Gianni Gallo who owns and operates Gallo Productions are producing serious video in house.  I never knew it existed at this location and I certainly had no idea of the scope of Gianni’s work which takes him all over the world. 

There are no signs on the building to tell you what is going on in there.  Hell even my third guest Jonathan Pope- co-president of the Gloucester Fishermen Athletic Association couldn’t find it even after walking up and down the street for a good while.

Once you enter the doors and see the production facility and how professional the whole set up is you would be proud to have these types of pros part of the working culture of our City.   These aren’t hacks like me, this is an internnational media business and it is based right out of our City of Gloucester.

I want to reiterate something so that it sinks in in case I didn’t drive it home the first time.  Today’s technology means that this type of production facility and these types of talented media magnates such as Gianni Gallo and Joe Langhan do not need to locate here.  They can broadcast Hi Definition television from Boston, New York, LA- wherever they chose.  The content that Gianni films is all over the world.

But they chose to work here.  In Gloucester.  That should tell you something.  This is a great place we have here my friends.

Taping of GoodMorningGloucester at Gallo Productions-Behind the Scenes

Joey Ciaramitaro performed three interviews for GoodMorningGloucester at Gallo Productions.

Photographing and video from behind the scene, was an interesting experience, especially watching Joey take directions vs. giving them.  

The interview videos will be shown on GoodMorningGloucester, and I will follow-up with Behind the scenes footage, hope you enjoy it.

Virgilio’s


Well it’s been a while since posting on GMG. I have been real busy with work. I was home today and was eating a Virgilio’s sandwich looking through old photos and this one popped up. This is an HRD that was taken during the Block Party last summer.

Representing Straight from the old USSR!

Joey, I invited 2 officials from the Communist Youth Party under the old Soviet regime in the USSR to represent for GMG 🙂 I think this might be the first time Gloucester has been saluted by Soviet officials! Also by an authentic Belarusian teddy bear in the background! Привет из Беларуси! (“Greetings from Belarus!”)
