With this film I’ll be trying to make the documentary process more transparent. My goal is to get feedback from as many people as I can in the crafting of this video. I’m trying to gather a crowd sourced test audience to help guide me through the important issues around this topic. By uploading unedited videos of interviews, videos from workshops and videos from hearings shortly after I tape them I hope to start a discussion about the direction this documentary takes while as it's being made.
As the project progresses I will be posting rough edits for comments and suggestions that will lead me to make more informed editing decisions and help me tell a complete story.
