It is Finally Out in the World
In 2021 after losing Boo and two of his sisters I had this idea to collect stories from my family during our family reunion. I thought, "It would be simple, just a few interviews shot by Michellay Wells and then we would edit it and release." HA! Fooled me. Nothing was easy about it lol Shoutout to the filmmakers. I didn't prep my family so some of them did not buy in initially, but then they talked for an hour (lol). It was hot as an oven in Pearl, Mississippi and the shooting happened outside. The sound was sketchy because outside, we didn't shoot enough b-roll, etc etc. Michellay and I did a first cut and I was not pleased so we started from scratch. We have lived with these narratives and this footage since then. We broke it up into themes across all the footage and we got excited about it all over again and were determined to release it at this at my family reunion. Thank you so much to Michellay Wells for all of y...
