I was planning to have the trailer up this week, but Mac-Windows technological problems have slowed me down a little. I've got the software I need now, and should be able to continue everything else the way I planned.

The interview questions are nearly done and I hope to film them one day very soon. Once that's done, everything I need will be filmed and I'll just need to edit it all together.

This week began the long editing process! I've started sifting through all the live footage that I have, trying to separate songs into either separate pieces or sections that I plan to use as transitions. I'm also trying to decide what song to use in the trailer, so feel free to comment on that if you like.

The footage is on my computer and the editing process has (almost) begun. There's some technical things I have to do before I can actually start editing, but they won't take long. I'm excited to have the trailer up as soon as it finishes, and I'll be sure to post a link to where you can find it on the internet. (In all likelihood, YouTube.)

I've also started to develop the questions that I'll ask the members of Josh Ridings Band in their interviews. All four members will have the same questions, with the encouragement to be as candid and silly/serious as they want to be. I feel that if I capture the essence of who they are and what their message is, they should be allowed to be goofy if they feel satisfied with it. I can't wait for some of the answers....

I'll be starting the editing process very soon. In other interesting news, Josh Ridings Band premiered a new song at the Haiti benefit, and I caught it on camera! I'm currently the only person with any kind of recording of that song, and I plan on using the song as a centerpiece in the film.
