Hello everyone!

This afternoon I met with my multimedia expert/editor to begin brainstorming ideas for rolling out the documentary on RWOC’s efforts at sustainable filmmaking. We’ve hashed out a basic color scheme (guess what that might be) for the website and have a solid idea of what the layout is going to be.  I also made the decision to roll out a number of roughly edited clips instead of a trailer, primarily because I want to create additional buzz for both projects while educating people at the same time. Stay tuned for updates and thanks for stopping by RWOC.
