    Just found out that a public hearing on the wind farm that's proposed for the ridge behind my house is in a little more than a month. i have been thinking about doing this documentary i had in mind like 75% of my unoccupied time. i really feel like i can make something of it, but i'm doubtful of what might come of it and whether i'll have the time or the resources to do it. i gotta find out about permits, to shoot around town, permission to film the hearing, i'd like to interview a few people before the hearing happens. i don't even have a mic for my camera other than the on-camera mic (though i'm looking at a highly reviewed and fairly inexpensive Audio-Technica shotgun mic on eBay). i'm also a little worried about any legal implications, especially since i don't have a proper LLC for my video work yet. But since the doc wouldn't be completed for a least 2 yrs (if it happens at all) i think i can make that happen before any sort of distribution or viewing happens.
    i feel like i'm standing on these rocks in front of a body of water. i don't know how deep it is, i don't know if there's a current or how fast it is, i don't know the temp of the water. And i'm stnading here taking a pace toward and then away from the water's edge, debating whether to jump in.

    • sounds like a big on taking. On the other hand you sound pretty passionate about it, and really how often does that happen?dropdown
