White Glove Gaffer

For years, I have joked about wanting to be a white glove gaffer.

Chance, the best boy on my last movie (Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil, And Vile), presented me with these:




I'm now officially a white glove gaffer!

It is a hilarious gift.  And I love the wooden case.

For those who don't know, on larger jobs, the gaffer is often a white glove gaffer:  in general, he doesn't load or un-load gear, he doesn't run cable, and he doesn't set lights.

It's not entirely a joke.  I would be perfectly content to be a white glove gaffer.

I've had people tell me, I wouldn't be happy being a white glove gaffer.  I don't think so.  I think I would be thrilled to be the white glove gaffer.

I'll have to keep this box on every set cart for now on.
