So, last night was one of the longest nights ever. I was in Wichita filming the WPRS until 4 am this morning, and didn't get back to St. Joe until about 6:30. I watched the sun set and the sun rise with no shut-eye inbetween. Tiredness aside, last night was VERY successful. I got some really awesome material and interviews, and the night shot on the camera worked great. The only thing was the camera battery decided to be a pain in my rear, but I was able to work it out. Perhaps I can attribute the unexplained and sudden battery drain to paranormal activity?
So, now the real work begins. This whole week is going to consist of me going over about four hours of footage, in an attempt to piece together something that isn't completely heinous. That's probably going to have to wait until tomorrow. I'll load the footage onto my computer, but other than that, my eyes can't stand to stare a computer screen for more that about ten minutes. And that's pushing it.
So, hopefully I've something tangible to show in class on Thursday. That's the game plan anyways.
Until then...

Video
So, I've rewritten my script, at least up until the WPRS interviews. I've also completed my intro, and plan on having most of the video done by the end of the night. I haven't reposted my script to the Google Doc yet, but hopefully I'll get that done. The video is really my priority right now.

Script is up...
Well, after several daunting minutes of trying to paste my script from Word to Google Docs, I finally managed to paste it over without completely mauling the format of the Google Doc. Only a few other scripts are up so far, and mine looks very short in compairison! I suppose my biggest difference is that I'm relying greatly on the footage I'll be (hopefully) getting on the 24th of April. I emailed Sherrie last night to double-check our meeting at Cowtown. I haven't heard from her yet, but I'll give it a few more days before I start to worry!
Also, the bulk of my film will be B-roll and interview material from the WPRS. I can't wait until the 24th! I've generated a list of questions that I think will provide some really interesting answers (at least I think so!). Anyways, just a brief update, hopefully I'll be hearing from Sherrie in the next day or so!
