first footage

This is a still image taken from an interview with Sarah last week. Sarah is this year's Rose Queen, and I had the opportunity to talk to her on camera while she was in town for a photo shoot.
We talked about how crazy this summer has been for her, and about the history and future of the TRF.
This week I was also able to interview Jill Ramey, TRF historian, as well as the 5 children who are included in the Festival Court.
Next week I'll do two more interviews then head back to California for school. Most of the production will occur during/surrounding the festival in October, when I'll fly back to Tyler with my friend Jon, plus a camera or two.
