Wow, we're almost done filmming

Well, we actually don't shoot on film, but I'm sure you get the idea.

Yesterday, producer, Sandra Keats, returned from a wonderfully successful shoot in Massachusetts. She was there shooting an episodes tentatively titled "A Year Without A Mother." It's about children having to cope with life while their mothers are stationed in Iraq. I'm sure it'll be a moving story. Sandra says she collected some excellent material. We're especially proud of her work because this is the first episode Sandra produced by herself. Most of this season Sandra has been working as Amanda's Associate Producer. From all accounts it sounds like Amanda did a wonderful job of training Sandra.

Now all that's left to shoot is a "pick up" shoot for our episode about two servicemen whose wives face deportation from the United States. This story, like all our stories, is also powerful and moving. ... We'll keep you posted on it's progress in the edit room.
