And so we’d have over 700 lighting cues which can be switching as we’re going round her. We do a full 360-degree (flip) round right here. And so Alice and her staff … are working their butts off to regulate each time that that digicam’s shifting to at least one facet. After which, ‘What measurement is the brim?’ And we’ve got to see her eyes all all through that.
