Tom took this photo during production at Vestas wind turbine company in Windsor, Colorado. We’re interviewing Kevin Corey for an investor video with Metro Denver EDC. This is the factory where Vestas manufactures their windmill blades. The blades are 140 feet long, made of fiberglass and weigh over 6 tons. Each windmill has three. The biggest challenge to shooting inside the factory was dealing with factory noise. We were lucky, however, because the work of buffing out the blades required only a very quiet vacuum system. It was consistent the entire time we were there, so we recorded additional room tone and will even out the audio in post.
