Back when I was in film school during my university years, I did a project on a heating, ventilation and A/C professional.
It was way more interesting than you might think.
I know that genuinely does not sound genuinely fascinating to everyone, however the guy that I did the movie about was one of the most interesting people that I have ever met. This guy worked in the heating and cooling profession for all of his adult life. He started going to school to become a heating, ventilation and A/C professional right after he got out of middle school, and so he basically worked in the heating and cooling industry for about 60 years. He was pretty ancient when my friend and I did the movie, however, this guy was one of those people who the camera just enjoyed. I enjoyed filming him and interviewing him. He had so many good stories about all the residential projects that he did over the years. A lot of the people that he worked for were famous around here, and so their stories were fascinating. I enjoyed hearing all the fun stuff that he talked about, and about all the silly things that he found through the years in weird customers’ heating and cooling vents and air duct! You just would not guess what some people would hide in their air duct system! Anyway, the movie turned out to be genuinely good, and I got an A on my project. I will never forget that guy, and I will never feel about the heating, ventilation and A/C profession as something that would be boring ever again.
