and it was an incredible kind of transition for me back and so i didn't have a starring role and i didn't have to worry about really being a hundred percent back in shape but it got me back into the shows we can economy back into and you know just being in the room with great  in london is to not push because sometimes if you don't get a laugh that you think you've heard it as a bigger laugh and so same lesson here audience to audience you might think oh i got a huge laugh on that line last night no i didn't o know you're so wonderful and i hope everybody can come and see the show everyone get back to chicago and go and get tickets right now hey everyone it's rachel from princeton tonight and today we're out on the street getting public opinion about a dangerous chemical known as d h m o let's hear what people have to say about it we're students doing a video about environmental chemistry we're just trying to talk about to ban it right now just a little bit background about it there's a lot of research coming out they can be linked to a lot of different diseases and bad outcomes sometimes ingestion of it can throw off electrolyte balances in your body it can even cause burning accidental inhalation can it even be fatal sometimes it can be linked to cancer so it can be found in biopsies of tumor cells post mortem of cancer patients it's been found in the diets of a lot of criminals convicted of violent crimes why is it unregulated that's what we're trying to find out so we're trying to kind of like raise awareness about it or like how is this not being talked about more and how are people kind of letting it fly under the radar what do you think about the fact that it's just completely  regulated in our food i mean if that's all true i don't i don't want to my food i think it's a hardball and it sounds like they're trying to poison a circulus on purpose that's where my head's going right now the government should do something about it it's a bad thing to not have such regulations well i'm not happy that it's not regulated but on the flip side of that what's the point of regulating it if it's loud elsewhere and then comes into our country it is dangerous i think it's bad and that's part the reason why if you care about yourself your body and the world you should become a vegan and it's even sometimes found in completely all natural products it's actually usually labeled under different names to make it seem like it's not there that's kind of scary it's a problem there's a case in elapsed right now and what we're eating and perhaps the need to be more awareness and perhaps the consequences for using such chemicals is something that we're trying to lean towards is banning it in our food and food products in america do you think you would be in support of banning t h m oh definitely yes definitely in banning yes i definitely am i would be in favor of banning it i think it would be a great idea yeah something has to be done we've been testing and it's even found inside the plastic of most water bottles sold in grocery stores i don't know about plastic water bottles are bad for many other reasons to eliminating them is probably a good idea actually part of what we've been researching why it's inside water bottles is because it's water oh it's water honest everything i said is still true but it still is linked to all those things it is in the diet of prisoners convicted of of crimes it is found in tumor cells just like the rest of ourselves have all of this is true which it is should we ban water out of these events water no do you think it's dangerous it sounds like you know we should we should be a lot more careful about drinking water we should probably just never have it i wouldn't say that but there were you tell me it's actually was we are doomed my name is nathan johnson i am the owner of three of studio us the creative director of the x magazine by today ticks so  i first moved to the city about ten years ago with my wife she got a job on broadway and and i was an actor at that point so i was doing a lot of addition broadly and i love the entertainment industry and that's one of things so i started thinking about other things i love to do and one of the things was photography and i kind of got this idea to maybe open up the talk of the studio which i did i ended up doing that like i'm fifty six street and eighth avenue and that's where i kind of started to work with a lot of actors and that's where i shot my first campaign was when i was over there a shop a bonnie and clyde what i do right now is this is a really a great balance between theater and entertainment industry and photography all coming together honestly it's a great place for me to be i love supporting theatre i love photographing theater i love you know getting my teams together to be able to create work that that really promotes theater and makes it look as glamorous and sexy as possible i mean i just whatever i can do to help support the industry and that's kind of how i see myself as somebody that's able to support what they're doing on stage is i'm able to you know garner more attention and show them off you know to me and so yeah this this is a great place for me to be so i really want to drive studio to be a place where creatives can come they can feel like they're inspired in the space they can feel like it's a little bit of a blank canvas i wanted to feel comfortable for my clients and my friends and for the community and so studio to see a lot of the stuff we have is wood or old iron in this kind of war and feel we've really played off the high line because we're at war right along the high line and now what they've done is they've made it a park for new yorkers and it runs like from thirty fourth street down play fourteenth street and i really wanted to kind of have that feel i think we've achieved that but it's been a really great space where we've been able to have really amazing clients and be able to see some really magazines basically have all been through here at some point and then on the other hand i've had people from breaking bad i've had shows you know people from and see if you know samuel jackson a robber redford all these great people that i really respect and so it's been a cool place to have just people that you know i don't get to necessarily connect those people outside of this environment when they come in here you know i'm able to talk to daniel radcliffe or something like that where i saw him on the street i would never approach him or if we had invent you know he's crazy busy but when he's here he's able to be you know it's just a set of fifteen people and it's like it's a being on set is just a little bit it's it's a little different everybody's there for to get the best product possible everybody's there to get the best outcome and create the best work possible so it's a it's a fun space to be and still my favorite part of photo shoots and about creating is the collaboration's i love having different people that are really good at the jobs i love partnering with them and i love because  do i can create good work on my own but i can create much better work with other talented people such a day like we've got a photo shoot this afternoon and you know it's like when you find a great model and a great makeup artist and a great hairstylist it's like now now we're all for working together trying to create something better or you know if we're shooting i'm probably campaign you know we've got the art director and the creative director of the company and we're all putting our heads together to create something that is much better than what we could do just one person on their own some people are lone wolves i like collaborating and so honestly like photo shoots i think being on set is always just kind of it's exciting i think every sets a little bit different and you get to create the environment that you like when a client comes in here the set is what i want to be and i set the tone for those for the shoots and so i have i have a lot of fun doing that so some advice that i would have for aspiring photographers and filmmakers i just i think it's important just you know get out there and shoot and find out what passion i'm kind of somebody that comes to the school of thought of just shoot everything until you start to understand where what your new shoes and i it took me a while i was shooting weddings and shooting you know what else was i doing senior portraits and that sort of thing back in minnesota you know twelve twelve years ago and i realized very quickly that's not what i wanted to do and it's not one of the ten words that i want to be shooting so in fact and that's why i think i came into photography a little bit later because i didn't see that wasn't what i really really enjoyed so i hadn't found it yet and it took me being an actor to actually kind of get me thinking in that sphere of like maybe there's something i can do here with my community this way but i think shoot everything until you start realizing what you're passionate about and what you want to kind of focus in on and then i do that but then also start just watching the other people that are sitting in the space that you want to be working and and see what they're doing and what you want to change and all that sort of stuff so and then i think for that it's after there is it's just like doing as much as you can but also you know read as much as you can and look up as much to tauriel isn't behind the scenes as you can online as well as so many resources you know some people do college classes totally great for me i taught myself and i was you know it's a little bit of trial and error and which i think can be a real you know a really good teacher failure community a teacher you know and and finding what what you didn't do so great on the shoot and how can you fix how can you make it better next time i'm always working to make my work better so this photo shoot this afternoon and i'm literally thinking like what what can i try that i haven't tried before like how can i push my boundaries and there's always a risk for failure but i  think that like that little the little butterflies they just never leave me like they're always there when i'm trying something new and i think that's a good thing you know so prince and i thank you for joining us here on the set of your studios and it's been fun having just i'm noah and this is a spider
