Reaching out to Israel

Today Jenna and I had the pleasure of filming Sir Ben Kingsley for Nancy Spielbergs' tribute to Israel.  We headed down to the Ritz Carlton around lunch time and watched the wrap up of a photo shoot for Parade magazine in Sir Ben's hotel room. He was incredibly sweet and humble, allowing the photographer to take his time and creative freedom. When they wrapped, it was our turn. 

I filmed while Jenna lit a birthday cake, and Sir Ben blew it out, while saying 'Happy Birthday Israel.' The footage will be part of a series of celebs wishing Israel happiness on thier 60th Birthday. You can read more about the film here.
