“Please allow me to introduce myself, I’m a man of wealth and taste…” Actually, I am a woman of taste…and debt. The debt part, well, that’s for another blog (the single mother’s in debt support group blog, maybe.) But the taste part, that’s relevent here. I have had the good fortune to become involved with this tasty project- at once innovative (the salad of microgreens,) challenging (the raw oyster appetizer,) substancial (the pot roast entree,) and comfortingly sweet (the chocolate pudding dessert.) My name is Tracy Russell and I am working with Dana on Evolution of Dad, as an associate producer.
Since Dana last wrote, shortly after Father’s Day, we are cooking! The Father’s Day Video on YouTube peaked at over 368,000 viewings! One of the many contacts resulting from the Father’s Day Video posting is Lisa Takeuchi Cullen, a freelance writer for Time Magazine, who called Dana last week and interviewed him for a proposed article about fatherhood. Check out her blog bite about our project at https://time-blog.com/work_in_progress/
for the date of 6/26/07. This week a local publication printed an interview with Dana that really goes into some nice detail about his motivation behind the project. Check out the article at https://www.hudsonreporter.com/site/news.cfm?newsid=18535926&BRD=1291&PAG=461&dept_id=523592&rfi=6 .
I am beginning to carve into the daunting task of finding sponsers to help support the filmmaking process. If anyone has ideas of specific companies who may be inclined to want to align themselves with a positive film project about fatherhood- let me know.
Hungry for more updates about this project? Sit down with me tomorrow for another juicy morsel…
