Production is over and everyone is home safe. I met Morgan in Keene, New Hampshire at the McCafe. I missed breakfast by 11 minutes so I had to settle for a 10:41 chicken sandwich. Morgan was laughing and looked like he'd just seen a unicorn run a red light. I think we're all in a state of euphoric shock and disbelief that we actually made it to the other side of a successful production push.
We talked for awhile and got a rough plan in line. I'll be moving out to Maine by the middle of January. Then we'll log tapes for 3 weeks and buy a couple books on how to put together a documentary film so we can learn how to make the film while logging tapes. Then we'll do some heavy writing and thinking and begin the editing around February 15. Right now Independence Day is our goal to have a rough Director's Cut finished.
The Vanderbilt Investment Group will be offering us heavy artillery support.
I told Morgan that I'd like to believe that now the most stressful and difficult phase of the project is behind us, but that probably isn't true.
But never mind that. Christmas is in two days and we've all earned a little break. I just poured an eggnog and in a little while I'm going to wander down to the saloon and see who shows up. If you'd care to join me that would be fine.
