Brad in Cache Creek, BC

I'm working my first gig as an extra on the "A Team Movie" that's filming an hour from my home. The location we're at is very desert-like and is being used to simulate Mexico. The dirt on the site is as fine as talcum powder and when the wind blows, everything gains a thick layer of dust, which the other crew members find annoying because they have to keep their iPods, BlackBerrys and cell phones put away so that the fine dust doesn't find its way into their devices. With my OtterBox Armor, I don't have to worry about it at all. While I'm waiting off set, I can use my iPod touch through the fully functional protective window. I slipped the OtterBox onto my police belt before they took the continuity shots, so now I have to wear it through the whole shoot, for continuity's sake, which is great because I have fast access to my music between shots! After the day of shooting was done, I ran into Quinton "Rampage" Jackson, one of the top 5 UFC fighters, who is playing Mr. T's role of B.A.Baracus. "Rampage" who is known for his wrestling, strength and slamming ability rose to the challenge and put my OtterBox in his signature move, the Power Bomb! He gave it all his might but the iPod survived!!! I picked it up and the iPod started up, no worries*. Thanks OtterBox!!!* The last paragraph may not have actually happened and may have been added for dramatic effect. - Brad
