The core of our Interpreter Foundation film crew is (from left to right) James Jordan, Mark Goodman, and Russell Richins, of RedBrick Film Works. They were all involved in filming the interviews on Monday and Wednesday (today), as well as in our recent filming in Nauvoo and Carthage and upstate New York and Kirtland. They are very, very good to work with.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We spent another solid day today filming for the Interpreter Foundation\u2019s forthcoming Becoming Brigham<\/em> series of short documentaries, this time doing indoor \u201cstudio\u201d conversations at a home in Pleasant Grove. \u00a0I think that we captured some good discussions, and I\u2019m looking forward to eventually making these materials public. \u00a0I hope and I believe that people will find them interesting and helpful.<\/p>\n
