Two more!

It’s Saturday night, and the weekend has already been very long. But good news: we’ve been hard at work on Production. I had the good fortune of filming with our youngest subject, Mr. Iván Lacroix, who was a delight to work with for his Day 1 interview.

…and this was then followed up by the Day 1 interview in the sunny Bronx with Jonathan Mejia of The Sarracenia Forum. We talked about the board’s annual charity auction (which started a week ago!) and this year’s beneficiary, as well the site’s goals for the next year.

Coming up next: I’ll be shadowing Jonathan and Iván for a day or two in the next few weeks and filming with Eric at an event on March 20, and Day 1 interview with author Matt Kaelin (tentatively) on March 23.

Day 1 is in the can!

So, we had our first day of Production this past Sunday, a week later than originally planned, but still completed. 😀 Spent about half a day out at Seemore Carnivorous Gardens with Eric Kunz, who was interviewed for his ‘Winter’ segment. A good time was had by wall, and a few screen grabs (raw footage, resized) will follow below.

We captured some great insights, some interesting perspectives, and plenty of shots that will help accent the interview.

We’ll be following up with Eric on March 20th to round up his winter segment as he gives an educational presentation at a nursery. We’ve been given tentative permission to be on hand, so I’m excited to share what happens then!
