Welcome to my new site!

My old website desperately needed to be updated so I finally took the time and effort to implement a new design on my website. You might also notice that I combined my main website and my blog. I know I don’t update my blog nearly enough, but if I travel to Los Angeles again this summer, I will be updating it again. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.

Also, be sure to check out some of my editing projects by clicking the link at the top of this page.

Back To Peoria

Brian Scheffler — Sun, 12 Aug 2007 17:12:00 +0000

In just a couple hours, I’ll be heading back to Peoria. I’m excited to return home, but it was tough yesterday leaving Big Brother. I’m sure I’ll be back in the future, possibly even in September for the final episode. I am definitely looking forward to seeing my family and Hope… and I am looking forward to sleeping in my own bedroom too.

I wanted to thank everyone who sent me emails or comments on here… plus everyone who sent me letters or care packages. I appreciate everyone’s support!

Thanks!

My First Credits Appearance

Brian Scheffler — Tue, 10 Jul 2007 02:17:00 +0000

I made my first national credits appearance on Sunday, July 8th, 2007 on the second episode of Big Brother 8 on CBS. Hopefully you didn’t blink or you would have missed it. But in case you did miss it, here it is:

Big Brother 8 Premiered Last Night…

Brian Scheffler — Sat, 07 Jul 2007 01:20:00 +0000

Last night, Thursday 7/5, was the premier episode of BB8. The overnight ratings put us at Number 2 for the night. Not bad! We were beat by “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?” But its still not a bad start to the season! It’s a blast working on the show that I’ve followed for several years. Continue to tune in!

Sorry I haven’t been able to respond to everyone’s emails and comments. I’m still doing 12-13 hours per day and I don’t have a day off until next Friday. I will try to respond soon! But its time for a nap now.

Update

Brian Scheffler — Sun, 01 Jul 2007 21:38:00 +0000

Well, I’ve started working my summer job out here in LA and I’m loving it so far. Unfortunately, I can’t talk about it much and can’t post any pictures, but it’s definitely a lot of fun (even though I’ve been working 12+ hour days).

I’m sure I’ll have more pictures to post though when Hope and my grandma come back out for a couple days.

Los Angeles - Week 1

Brian Scheffler — Sat, 23 Jun 2007 21:22:00 +0000

I’m all moved into my apartment… waiting to start working sometime soon. Hope helped me move in and while she was here, we went to Jay Leno, The Santa Monica Pier, 3rd Street Promenade, Universal Studios, and many more places. Here are some pictures of us at The Santa Monica Pier. Plus a picture of Paris Hilton’s house. And there are also some pictures of us at Universal Studios.

Movin’ to L.A.

Brian Scheffler — Thu, 21 Jun 2007 06:44:00 +0000

Well, I’ve arrived out in Los Angeles, where I’ll be spending the summer. My apartment is overlooking the Hollywood Hills out of my balcony. Out the back, I can see Warner Brothers, NBC Universal, and KNBC. They tape shows like Gilmore Girls and One Tree Hill at WB and The Tonight Show at NBC.

Hope and I went to Jay Leno’s show tonight to be in the audience. It was our first big adventure driving in my car on the busy LA roads.

We also drove up to the Hollywood sign for some pictures… then over to Griffith Park where the fires were on May. Then it was over to Hollywood Blvd. where we walked to get smoothies at Hollywood and Highland.

Here are some pictures from my first day living in Los Angeles. Notice the Hollywood Hills, TV studios, and downtown LA in the background.

Hawaii!

Before my trip to LA, I’m on vacation in Hawaii with my family and my girlfriend. Here are some pictures of our first two days.

Last Day @ WMBD, Maybe?

Brian Scheffler — Tue, 12 Jun 2007 21:28:00 +0000

Today was possibly my last day at WMBD. I am moving to Los Angeles for the summer to work for CBS Entertainment. I will most likely be returning to WMBD as long as they take me back

Today was an eventful morning due to a house fire and we were live from the scene most of the show. (pictures below). After today’s show I thought about all the crazy times we’ve had over the past two and a half years. Moments like this and this one. Plus getting Craig’d. Can’t forget about that clipper system though!

But anyways, I’ll miss everyone at WMBD while I’m gone this summer, but hopefuly I’ll be back. Thanks everyone from the mornign crew who became part of my life… back to when I did those on-air segments with Eddie to now, three of four years later. I’ll definitely miss Stephanie and Mark, who I’ve grown close to since the beginning. And of course the entire morning show crew! Can’t forget about Laura and especially Craig who both gave me the opportunity to get where I am today. Thanks everyone and please keep in touch. Mark and Laura have my email address.

Moving To Hollywood

Brian Scheffler — Sun, 27 May 2007 18:45:00 +0000

I started this blog because friends and family want me to keep them updated this summer with my California experiences. I’ll be moving out to LA for the summer to work on the set of a Reality TV show that airs on a major network. I’ll be out there for about two months working long days in the extreem heat, but I’m really looking forward to it.

So I’ll be using this blog to keep everyone updated and feel free to email me if you want to say hi!
