Had a setup rehearsal with Matt, the San Diego Zoo’s social media guru, for tomorrow evening’s live Google+ Hangout with Zoo Ambassador Rick Schwartz<\/a>. This will be his second such online get-together since his return from studying koala conservation<\/a> in Australia.<\/p>\n

There will be many watching, but only three of us interacting with Rick and Matt, one of whom is Michelle (she has an excellent blog<\/a>), a zoo-loving, photographer friend of mine. The entire hangout will be available later on the Zoo’s YouTube channel<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The first picture shows my cluttered area and simple backdrop setup. Have fun snooping all the detritus. (Yes those are pirate skulls, peanut m&ms, scissors hanging from a finger, Zoo cups and Toy Story toys. And no need to worry, those medicine containers do not actual contain prescribed medication.)<\/p>\n

The second image is just a screen capture of our hangout rehearsal. The backdrop worked pretty well, I think.<\/p>\n

I’m really looking forward to this live video chat.<\/p>\n
