Beyond the night stargate atlantis1/20/2023 He always had a way of making you feel like a million bucks when he wanted to. While I felt at the time like I was doing whatever I could to stick around and continue to soak up all the knowledge I could, years later Joel would tell future assistants, most of whom are still friends of mine, "You should be more like Neal, he really went the extra mile with those labels". We joked that for the amount of hours I spent making the Filemaker template look as fancy as possible (it spoke too) that he could have commissioned a software developer to make a real one so he could make his money back. I spent a ridiculous amount of time making fancy labels for the mixing board and patch bay in photoshop and making a dub log generating program in Filemaker Pro. What I lacked in technical knowledge, I tried to make up for in my knack for aesthetics. I broke stuff as often as I fixed it but still Joel kept me around. I was pretty good at figuring stuff out but was by no means a tech whiz. The first question he ever asked me, which was pretty much my interview for the job as assistant, was "Do you understand signal flow?" I did not, at least not to the extent he meant, but lied and said I did anyways. Suite from Stargate Atlantis by Joel Goldsmith
