Morning everybody. How you doing today? Mark here after a week off on supposed to be on the flog you getting a cool little inside or look down into my home office. Please forgive the mess. It’s been a frantic week been off last week with some back and shoulder challenges still struggling through that but a degree or reinvent is less than a week away and what I wanted to talk to you today and why I’m giving you this look into the studio is I want to talk about preparation so you can see here.

I’ve got things set up. I’ve been doing some filming ahead of time. And now I’m just going to try this super awkward solo camera swap at get this down on the set tripod. Set up the mic. And that’s why I’m going in there. I’m in a hurry up. So you probably got the microphone and shot here in Las Vegas for a crazy amazing and super super exciting so challenges that is a lot of preparations if I truly prepared ahead of time.

here this is what how ever seen would have been turned on Mikey lights. For those of you on the podcast. Obviously with the key light in the studio properly liquor to record some videos of the next day or two is recording a whole bunch of stuff that I’ll release more at 2 over the Privacy, which is obviously the main theme of this time when I’m talking to teens are prepared for any sort of response to have your lights already on you need to have the scene set the scene staged as I did the openings.

How I shoot and why are two different shots and also a work out in 2019, but you’re setting up things. You’re thinking through. What do you have time to think so but I have a lot more time than I do next week so next week. So it’s going to be on my calendars is jam-packed, which is a great thing.

I love it, but I don’t have time to plant crops. I don’t have time to create the bumpers I go in front of the videos. I don’t have to call at 10 to make a call to action. I don’t have time to write blog posts on the Fly that I haven’t already sketched out into a skeleton.

I’m doing my preparation last week and won’t start a couple weeks ago honestly, but I’ve been doing my preparation to do in preparation for both of the month before the actual show the corollary here. If you’re in a scenario where you’re defending an organization preparation makes the actual event so So much easier.

So if you take time to write down to the key contacts are what the critical information is what the restoration procedures are test those procedures out. If you’re doing that work at a time when things hit the fan all you have to do is walk through the steps and verify reached up 5% of the word.

You just need to 95% of you just need to work through it and not stumbling one or are you just got through on the skin of your teeth have you know where you barely made? It. It’s true. It’s amazing. How is normal your systems are working. I soon enough reached your project checklist.

Checklist points to a bunch of code to do Restorations incident response all this kind of stuff, but you need to go with the flow. Is it supposed to be determined there was an error and I’m so there’s an Article II that dropped in CTV CTV News here in Canada about a municipality on one of our provinces that actually paid a substantial Ransom stop the cast blame, but the reality is the vast majority of people probably don’t have to pay me to get access back to it.

It works on the premise that there’s only one copy of the day. Well, if you just make a simple offline backup Primus has gone. So yes, it’s inconveniencing. You need to restore a bunch of systems to clean and then restore a clean set of it, but you don’t have to pay out-of-pocket.

5% of 0 t response and so few teams do it so though. I do think it is going gray hair over the last couple weeks, and I’m super excited about next week. I’m hoping to be able to be more than no choice with the deadline. So the shower. CA how are you preparing for this kind of content around AWS around the cloud from me.

If you want me to find out about the show more than happy to do that. I hope you are set up for a fantastic day. I will talk to you online. No tomorrow. Morning everybody. How you doing today?
