The 1st month of production for Keep It Rolling was a rollercoaster ride of ups and downs, backs and forths, and emails. Seriously, a lot of emails! Thankfully, we've got an amazing support system behind us in the local and regional film community, snagging interviews with NC Film Commissioner Aaron Syrett and Wilmington Regional Film Commissioner Johnny Griffin as well as some other film industry workers. Screen Gems has been paramount in letting us shoot the studio area for b-roll and in setting up some interviews. So far, this project has taken a large amount of preliminary research to figure out who to talk to, what to talk about, and what resources will have to go into the project.
Production so far has been centered here in town and in Raleigh shooting the capital area. We've been shooting on the Sony FS-100 and syncing sound with the H4N. So far, everything looks really sharp and we've been pleased with the look of the film. Our next steps are collecting more and more b-roll as we rack up interview footage and really getting the structure of our cut together.
So far, I've been really thrilled on the support of the local film community. I think it will continue to build as we get further into our film, but we hope that this support will boost our film forward and create more momentum!
