Here's a couple of the setup
It's certainly a lot different from the wolves and grizzly bears that I'm used to filming I can tell you that!!
I emailed Tiffany, the owner of the Spirits back in 2006 about doing a doc on her and the team. Things got a little crazy for everyone and it all kind of got pushed to the back burner.
Got involved again back in 2008 when someone else had the same idea to do a doc on the Spirits. Due to the direction the project started to go and what Tiffany was looking for, I became a solo act and have been working on my own for most of the time ever since.
Spent pretty much a year learning the style and gaining the teams trust. Now we're getting into the meat of the film and it's all starting to pay off. The team has pretty much included me in everything and their trust has made for some really memorable moments.
Will probably wrap up late Summer and spend the Fall editing all the footage. The amount of footage is staggering so far.
There's a working title, "Escape to the Music" that'll change before the film is done. I guess it really makes no sense when the film is about a woman who changes her life and becomes an inspiration to others through dance. Sure music and dance go hand in hand but the music isn't the main focus.
The beauty of this film is that there is no script and the story keeps changing the longer I'm with Tiffany and the team. Tiffany and the team are writing the story as they go along.
