00:01:07,910 --> 00:01:05,519 uh tell us a little bit about yourself 22 00:01:10,950 --> 00:01:07,920 pre-incident and pre-film and uh you 23 00:01:12,469 --> 00:01:10,960 know some of your past work 24 00:01:13,510 --> 00:01:12,479 hi guys 25 00:01:15,830 --> 00:01:13,520 um 26 00:01:18,390 --> 00:01:15,840 well 27 00:01:19,109 --> 00:01:18,400 just um 28 00:01:26,630 --> 00:01:19,119 i 29 00:01:28,390 --> 00:01:26,640 and um 30 00:01:32,149 --> 00:01:28,400 my mom got me 31 00:01:33,670 --> 00:01:32,159 a camera when i was 10 or 11 probably 11 32 00:01:35,590 --> 00:01:33,680 years old 33 00:01:38,630 --> 00:01:35,600 and i never left me 34 00:01:41,190 --> 00:01:38,640 so eventually i um 35 00:01:43,830 --> 00:01:41,200 used it for 36 00:01:45,749 --> 00:01:43,840 more than play things um used it to 37 00:01:47,030 --> 00:01:45,759 actually make a film that hopefully will 38 00:01:52,310 --> 00:01:47,040 matter 39 00:01:53,830 --> 00:01:52,320 because there's so many people out there 40 00:01:56,310 --> 00:01:53,840 who've had 41 00:01:57,429 --> 00:01:56,320 encounters like this that are 42 00:01:59,429 --> 00:01:57,439 silent 43 00:02:02,789 --> 00:01:59,439 they're quiet 44 00:02:04,709 --> 00:02:02,799 and uh have no one to talk to 45 00:02:06,069 --> 00:02:04,719 so was this your first major project for 46 00:02:10,150 --> 00:02:06,079 this or have you done other things 47 00:02:13,190 --> 00:02:10,160 similar in the past no i i was doing um 48 00:02:16,630 --> 00:02:13,200 short films and working on other other 49 00:02:18,949 --> 00:02:16,640 films or other people either as a 50 00:02:20,869 --> 00:02:18,959 camera operator or sound or i did 51 00:02:23,990 --> 00:02:20,879 literally every single role 52 00:02:25,430 --> 00:02:24,000 in the film industry and then um 53 00:02:27,110 --> 00:02:25,440 i started doing 54 00:02:30,869 --> 00:02:27,120 short uh 55 00:02:33,390 --> 00:02:30,879 film 16 minute films basically and um 56 00:02:36,949 --> 00:02:33,400 mostly that was uh in the 57 00:02:39,190 --> 00:02:36,959 psychiatric field to 58 00:02:41,190 --> 00:02:39,200 the film i did was right before this one 59 00:02:43,910 --> 00:02:41,200 was called a silence in the hurt which 60 00:02:47,030 --> 00:02:43,920 is about listening and 61 00:02:49,430 --> 00:02:47,040 um how listening is healing so much more 62 00:02:51,830 --> 00:02:49,440 healing than anybody speaking 63 00:02:54,070 --> 00:02:51,840 you know um 64 00:02:57,110 --> 00:02:54,080 that people's story 65 00:02:59,190 --> 00:02:57,120 when it's listened to heals 66 00:03:00,949 --> 00:02:59,200 you know a lot of none of us 67 00:03:03,190 --> 00:03:00,959 don't listen we um 68 00:03:04,790 --> 00:03:03,200 we've got we got all kinds of advice 69 00:03:07,030 --> 00:03:04,800 but the thing that actually does the 70 00:03:09,509 --> 00:03:07,040 healing is when somebody takes you in 71 00:03:12,229 --> 00:03:09,519 sees you hears you 72 00:03:14,630 --> 00:03:12,239 so that film did really well inside the 73 00:03:17,509 --> 00:03:14,640 psychiatric community 74 00:03:18,550 --> 00:03:17,519 and then this film i was actually doing 75 00:03:20,710 --> 00:03:18,560 another 76 00:03:22,070 --> 00:03:20,720 full feature dock on uh 77 00:03:24,710 --> 00:03:22,080 bud hopkins 78 00:03:27,910 --> 00:03:24,720 in his life as an artist his life 79 00:03:29,589 --> 00:03:27,920 researching ufos it's all in the can 80 00:03:31,350 --> 00:03:29,599 but as i was putting it together the 81 00:03:33,110 --> 00:03:31,360 john mack film 82 00:03:35,030 --> 00:03:33,120 the aerial school film 83 00:03:35,910 --> 00:03:35,040 um 84 00:03:38,070 --> 00:03:35,920 came 85 00:03:39,350 --> 00:03:38,080 surfaced and i and i just had to drop 86 00:03:42,710 --> 00:03:39,360 everything 87 00:03:44,390 --> 00:03:42,720 because that particular story 88 00:03:47,830 --> 00:03:44,400 i'm gonna finish the bud hopkins one 89 00:03:51,030 --> 00:03:47,840 trust me but this this particular story 90 00:03:52,789 --> 00:03:51,040 uh just was it was packed full of so 91 00:03:53,910 --> 00:03:52,799 many unique things 92 00:03:55,990 --> 00:03:53,920 you know 93 00:03:57,750 --> 00:03:56,000 the bbc and john mack from harvard 94 00:04:02,470 --> 00:03:57,760 university you got a schoolyard of kids 95 00:04:06,710 --> 00:04:05,110 air traffic controllers like 96 00:04:08,309 --> 00:04:06,720 and for those of our listeners who don't 97 00:04:11,190 --> 00:04:08,319 know just a quick rundown of what 98 00:04:12,470 --> 00:04:11,200 happened so september 16 1994 in rua 99 00:04:14,710 --> 00:04:12,480 zimbabwe 100 00:04:18,390 --> 00:04:14,720 there were 62 students between the ages 101 00:04:19,909 --> 00:04:18,400 of 6 and 12. um they saw a silver craft 102 00:04:22,710 --> 00:04:19,919 at least what they described as a silver 103 00:04:24,710 --> 00:04:22,720 craft uh one or more creatures were a 104 00:04:26,950 --> 00:04:24,720 parent that had no you know all black 105 00:04:29,030 --> 00:04:26,960 clothing they seemed to telepathically 106 00:04:31,510 --> 00:04:29,040 communicate with these students they all 107 00:04:34,150 --> 00:04:31,520 reported like they felt as if they were 108 00:04:36,230 --> 00:04:34,160 being communicated with individually yet 109 00:04:38,550 --> 00:04:36,240 this was a mass sighting so that's 110 00:04:41,030 --> 00:04:38,560 unique in itself too 111 00:04:43,270 --> 00:04:41,040 and you know it led to a whole lot of 112 00:04:45,189 --> 00:04:43,280 speculation and people you know 113 00:04:48,070 --> 00:04:45,199 just washing it off and saying you guys 114 00:04:49,670 --> 00:04:48,080 are crazy and then you know bigger 115 00:04:51,990 --> 00:04:49,680 scientists and bigger names including 116 00:04:53,990 --> 00:04:52,000 john mack got involved and figured out 117 00:04:56,070 --> 00:04:54,000 that yeah there was enough enough 118 00:04:58,230 --> 00:04:56,080 consistency with the base story that 119 00:04:59,749 --> 00:04:58,240 there's something here and what they saw 120 00:05:01,350 --> 00:04:59,759 is what they saw 121 00:05:03,110 --> 00:05:01,360 i like the part of the film where he 122 00:05:05,029 --> 00:05:03,120 said you know if all these kids had the 123 00:05:07,749 --> 00:05:05,039 exact same story i would know there was 124 00:05:09,590 --> 00:05:07,759 some kind of collusion or they compared 125 00:05:12,230 --> 00:05:09,600 notes because it it's like broken 126 00:05:14,230 --> 00:05:12,240 telephone even grown adults will vary 127 00:05:16,230 --> 00:05:14,240 the story as it passes through people 128 00:05:18,310 --> 00:05:16,240 right and generational stories show that 129 00:05:20,870 --> 00:05:18,320 as well so there was a big aspect of 130 00:05:22,710 --> 00:05:20,880 that where they all had you know some 131 00:05:24,550 --> 00:05:22,720 had said they saw more than one craft or 132 00:05:27,029 --> 00:05:24,560 more than one creature but there was 133 00:05:28,230 --> 00:05:27,039 still undoubtedly a craft and at least a 134 00:05:30,230 --> 00:05:28,240 creature 135 00:05:32,469 --> 00:05:30,240 you know common including drawings and 136 00:05:34,469 --> 00:05:32,479 everything else so um so that's the 137 00:05:36,469 --> 00:05:34,479 basis of the story and maybe you can 138 00:05:38,150 --> 00:05:36,479 elaborate on you know 139 00:05:39,909 --> 00:05:38,160 making of the film and you know what 140 00:05:41,189 --> 00:05:39,919 what happened immediately after that 141 00:05:45,189 --> 00:05:41,199 sighting 142 00:05:47,590 --> 00:05:45,199 well that was a great synopsis good job 143 00:05:48,310 --> 00:05:47,600 a lot of people don't you know know all 144 00:05:50,870 --> 00:05:48,320 the 145 00:05:52,790 --> 00:05:50,880 ins and outs of it um so 146 00:05:55,350 --> 00:05:52,800 uh yeah and 147 00:05:56,870 --> 00:05:55,360 after that you know it was it was hard 148 00:06:00,469 --> 00:05:56,880 for the kids i don't know 149 00:06:02,629 --> 00:06:00,479 if people realized but um 150 00:06:04,390 --> 00:06:02,639 you know the the teachers and they 151 00:06:06,950 --> 00:06:04,400 didn't believe the kids and it was the 152 00:06:08,790 --> 00:06:06,960 kids themselves that went home and told 153 00:06:10,390 --> 00:06:08,800 their parents 154 00:06:12,950 --> 00:06:10,400 and then the parents called to school 155 00:06:14,950 --> 00:06:12,960 like what happened to our children 156 00:06:17,510 --> 00:06:14,960 because they're coming home telling us 157 00:06:19,510 --> 00:06:17,520 they saw these things so that's what the 158 00:06:22,150 --> 00:06:19,520 kids themselves 159 00:06:24,710 --> 00:06:22,160 are why we're talking about this story 160 00:06:26,230 --> 00:06:24,720 right the witnesses themselves made this 161 00:06:28,150 --> 00:06:26,240 story a story 162 00:06:29,670 --> 00:06:28,160 and that took a lot of courage 163 00:06:33,749 --> 00:06:29,680 by them 164 00:06:36,390 --> 00:06:33,759 i i tipped my hat to them because um 165 00:06:38,070 --> 00:06:36,400 that was so brave as as little kids you 166

you captured um 173 00:06:56,230 --> 00:06:54,160 very well captured the emotional impact 174 00:06:58,629 --> 00:06:56,240 that this sighting had on these kids i 175 00:07:00,950 --> 00:06:58,639 mean they grew up to be adults you can 176 00:07:02,790 --> 00:07:00,960 actually see some of the post-traumatic 177 00:07:04,790 --> 00:07:02,800 stress that some of these 178 00:07:06,550 --> 00:07:04,800 uh kids who have grown up now are 179 00:07:08,390 --> 00:07:06,560 actually experiencing 180 00:07:10,309 --> 00:07:08,400 and that to me has always been a you 181 00:07:11,749 -->

00:08:44,070 --> 00:08:41,360 dollars that's what he said normally and 225 00:08:46,230 --> 00:08:44,080 i said i could do it for less than that 226 00:08:48,790 --> 00:08:46,240 you know what at the end of the day it 227 00:08:50,550 --> 00:08:48,800 costs 1.1 million dollars which is what 228 00:08:51,750 --> 00:08:50,560 i'm in the hole for 229 00:08:54,870 --> 00:08:51,760 um 230 00:08:56,630

248 00:09:33,910 --> 00:09:31,519 make because every single year 249 00:09:35,590 --> 00:09:33,920 every every probably every six months 250 00:09:37,750 --> 00:09:35,600 something new came in 251

00:10:49,040 on that thanks you know those you know 283 00:10:52,710 --> 00:10:50,640 i just have been all over the place i 284 00:10:55,110 --> 00:10:52,720 was staying in for a shack for quite a 285 00:10:56,710 --> 00:10:55,120 long time with no electricity no hot 286 00:10:57,670 --> 00:10:56,720 water or nothing 287 00:11:00,710 --> 00:10:57,680 but 288 00:11:02,550 --> 00:11:00,720 that the reality of because i have had 289 00:11:03,590 --> 00:11:02,560 cats and dogs in my life and i love 290 00:11:05,910 --> 00:11:03,600 animals 291 00:11:07,750 --> 00:11:05,920 but the reality is when first of all 292 00:11:09,990 --> 00:11:07,760 when i you have to open the door 293 00:11:12,470 --> 00:11:10,000 carefully because there's a snake called 294 00:11:15,269 --> 00:11:12,480 the puff adder which likes to lay itself 295 00:11:16,870 --> 00:11:15,279 down in front of the door it's it's a 296 00:11:19,670 --> 00:11:16,880 hemotoxic 297 00:11:21,990 --> 00:11:19,680 so you know it it

00:11:25,120 they gain the heat from the bottom of 301 00:11:30,069 --> 00:11:27,120 the door and then you gotta walk outside 302 00:11:31,590 --> 00:11:30,079 and realize there's a 550 pound cat out 303 00:11:37,509 --> 00:11:31,600 there 304 00:11:40,069 --> 00:11:37,519 like that every day yeah can you imagine 305 00:11:43,430 --> 00:11:40,079 i mean unbelievable 306 00:11:44,470 --> 00:11:43,440 and it's i give them those people such 307 00:11:47,190 --> 00:11:44,480 and 308 00:11:49,590 --> 00:11:47,200 we have no idea what that's like i do 309 00:11:51,590 --> 00:11:49,600 because i lived it for a while and i all 310 00:11:52,530 --> 00:11:51,600 i have is respect for those people 311 00:11:54,629 --> 00:11:52,540 that's living 312 00:11:56,629 --> 00:11:54,639 [Laughter] 313 00:11:58,389 --> 00:11:56,639 when you hear about the difficulties 314 00:11:59,990 --> 00:11:58,399 that everybody sees gone through like 315 00:12:02,310 --> 00:12:00,000 including now when you're describing 316 00:12:04,629 --> 00:12:02,320 logistical but like at the time it 317 00:12:06,949 --> 00:12:04,639 happened you know the bbc reporters and 318 00:12:09,269 --> 00:12:06,959 correspondents and everybody who sort of 319 00:12:12,470 --> 00:12:09,279 arrived on the scene and got the story 320 00:12:14,870 --> 00:12:12,480 they ran the risk of like career suicide 321 00:12:16,790 --> 00:12:14,880 especially you're trying to get bbc 322 00:12:18,710 --> 00:12:16,800 which is a very conservative 323 00:12:19,990 --> 00:12:18,720 well-respected you know they have a lot 324 00:12:21,590 --> 00:12:20,000 to lose 325 00:12:23,910 --> 00:12:21,600 you know i think his name was tim leach 326 00:12:26,949 --> 00:12:23,920 he was a bbc war correspondent in 327 00:12:29,990 --> 00:12:26,959 zimbabwe and he was like how do i get 328 00:12:33,509 --> 00:12:30,000 them to take me seriously not sacrifice 329 00:12:36,069 --> 00:12:33,519 my career but felt so important about it 330 00:12:38,069 --> 00:12:36,079 and he just wouldn't stop and even with 331 00:12:40,550 --> 00:12:38,079 john mack i mean here's a respected 332 00:12:42,069 --> 00:12:40,560 harvard psychologist whose own 333 00:12:43,590 --> 00:12:42,079 colleagues basically threw him under the 334 00:12:45,430 --> 00:12:43,600 bus and said yeah we think john's 335 00:12:47,190 --> 00:12:45,440 starting to lose it a little bit and 336 00:12:49,030 --> 00:12:47,200 eventually you know harvard went to his 337 00:12:51,509 --> 00:12:49,040 defense and said hey he has the right to 338 00:12:53,750 --> 00:12:51,519 investigate whatever he wants his brain 339 00:12:55,350 --> 00:12:53,760 is still of harvard caliber but they 340 00:12:56,949 --> 00:12:55,360 strung him out for a little while first 341 00:12:58,629 --> 00:12:56,959 like they made him sweat and didn't come 342 00:13:01,350 --> 00:12:58,639 to his aid right away 343 00:13:02,790 --> 00:13:01,360 and a lot of people this is there must 344 00:13:05,190 --> 00:13:02,800 be so much 345 00:13:07,750 --> 00:13:05,200 impact from this story and everybody 346 00:13:09,670 --> 00:13:07,760 must believe it so emphatically that 347 00:13:11,350 --> 00:13:09,680 they're willing to say screw it you know 348 00:13:13,110 --> 00:13:11,360 a fifty thousand dollar movie to a 349 00:13:15,190 --> 00:13:13,120 million bucks let's get her done you 350 00:13:17,350 --> 00:13:15,200 know there's enough there that it's 351 00:13:18,710 --> 00:13:17,360 worth pursuing and everybody seems to 352 00:13:20,550 --> 00:13:18,720 have pursued this and your movie 353 00:13:22,069 --> 00:13:20,560 actually captures that really well and 354 00:13:23,910 --> 00:13:22,079 the struggle that some of these people 355 00:13:25,430 --> 00:13:23,920 went through and you know and so it 356 00:13:27,750 --> 00:13:25,440 might have led to drinking and all the 357 00:13:30,389 --> 00:13:27,760 rest i mean people had a hard time with 358 00:13:31,829 --> 00:13:30,399 the fact that a bloody flying saucer and 359 00:13:34,310 --> 00:13:31,839 and creatures 360 00:13:36,150 --> 00:13:34,320 landed and uh you can't just put that 361 00:13:37,269 --> 00:13:36,160 out of your head you can't unlearn that 362 00:13:39,030 --> 00:13:37,279 information 363 00:13:40,710 --> 00:13:39,040 yeah you're right you're right those 364 00:13:43,590 --> 00:13:40,720 those people deserve 365 00:13:45,030 --> 00:13:43,600 tim john mack yeah i mean they don't 366 00:13:47,509 --> 00:13:45,040 deserve a lot of credit because they put 367 00:13:50,150 --> 00:13:47,519 their reputations on the line big time 368 00:13:51,590 --> 00:13:50,160 yeah and it's funny because bbc 369 00:13:53,670 --> 00:13:51,600 hired him 370 00:13:55,509 --> 00:13:53,680 because he was a good war zone reporter 371 00:13:58,389 --> 00:13:55,519 i mean they sent him into situations 372 00:14:01,269 --> 00:13:58,399 where he got shot at his crew was killed 373 00:14:05,590 --> 00:14:01,279 yet when it came to something like this 374 00:14:08,629 --> 00:14:05,600 they abandoned him yeah and i and until 375 00:14:09,910 --> 00:14:08,639 his death he was angry about that and i 376 00:14:12,470 --> 00:14:09,920 understand 377 00:14:14,230 --> 00:14:12,480 but and then john mack basically they 378 00:14:17,430 --> 00:14:14,240 tried to ruin his reputation which i 379 00:14:20,710 --> 00:14:17,440 think they were effective at at the time 380 00:14:22,389 --> 00:14:20,720 but again when somebody like that's 381 00:14:24,150 --> 00:14:22,399 when people do that 382 00:14:26,069 --> 00:14:24,160 people look back in history and they're 383 00:14:27,670 --> 00:14:26,079 they're like yeah no you would nobody 384 00:14:28,829 --> 00:14:27,680 would normally do that 385 00:14:32,470 --> 00:14:28,839 yeah you know 386 00:14:34,790 --> 00:14:32,480 so john mcmahon passed away in 2004 but 387 00:14:37,350 --> 00:14:34,800 he lives today so

391 00:14:44,790 --> 00:14:42,160 you bring it up 392 00:14:47,189 --> 00:14:44,800 and say that man put his life on the 393 00:14:49,269 --> 00:14:47,199 line his career on the line 394 00:14:51,590 --> 00:14:49,279 and you stand up for people like that 395 00:14:53,590 --> 00:14:51,600 and say he did something right 396 00:14:54,470 --> 00:14:53,600 and he deserves the credit right 397 00:14:57,030 --> 00:14:54,480 yeah 398 00:14:58,470 --> 00:14:57,040 that's for tim john i mean 399 00:15:00,470 --> 00:14:58,480 i could give you a list of people i've 400 00:15:02,629 -->

with the kids 404 00:15:11,750 --> 00:15:10,320 at the time i think he 405 00:15:13,509 --> 00:15:11,760 because this took place in september i 406 00:15:14,949 --> 00:15:13,519 think he didn't arrive till christmas 407 00:15:17,110 --> 00:15:14,959 time because i could see some christmas 408 00:15:19,670 --> 00:15:17,120 decorations december one after he 409 00:15:22,470 --> 00:15:19,680 arrived december one yeah so it's fairly 410 00:15:24,230 --> 00:15:22,480 short time for you know short notice um 411 00:15:26,550 --> 00:15:24,240 but the way that he handled the kids i 412 00:15:28,310 --> 00:15:26,560 was really impressed with that like in 413 00:15:30,310 --> 00:15:28,320 the recording the way that he would talk 414 00:15:32,629 --> 00:15:30,320 with him like what did you see did he

the way 427 00:15:59,350 --> 00:15:57,360 back to zimbabwe 428 00:16:01,110 --> 00:15:59,360 to go visit so can you tell us a little 429 00:16:03,269 --> 00:16:01,120 bit about that journey and how

guess the best way to say it was she 439 00:16:29,350 --> 00:16:26,399 was in the middle of processing it 440 00:16:31,030 --> 00:16:29,360 and she was very open with me when i 441 00:16:31,990 -->

well speak up 551 00:20:30,789 --> 00:20:28,799 so that happened till i mean i just this 552 00:20:32,870 --> 00:20:30,799 year i've gotten another 553 00:20:35,430 --> 00:20:32,880 student i've been looking for 554 00:20:38,549 --> 00:20:35,440 you know i i 555 00:20:40,870 --> 00:20:38,559 knew that she knew i was out here 556 00:20:43,029 --> 00:20:40,880 and she got in contact with me as with 557 00:20:45,190 --> 00:20:43,039 another male in was that eight months 558 00:20:47,430 --> 00:20:45,200 ago and i you know unfortunately the 559 00:20:49,669 --> 00:20:47,440 films wrapped but 560 00:20:51,909 --> 00:20:49,679 i really wanted those two 561 00:20:53,830 --> 00:20:51,919 in this movie but that's okay 562 00:20:57,990 --> 00:20:53,840 i'm glad they're 563 00:20:59,190 --> 00:20:58,000 about it at least hopefully they can 564 00:21:01,029 --> 00:20:59,200 talk about it to their friends and 565 00:21:02,710 --> 00:21:01,039 family now you know 566 00:21:05,270 --> 00:21:02,720 and one of the main issues too like you 567 00:21:06,549 --> 00:21:05,280 mentioned before was that they weren't 568 00:21:08,230 --> 00:21:06,559 able to 569 00:21:10,230 --> 00:21:08,240 tell the teachers for starters the 570 00:21:12,070 --> 00:21:10,240 teachers didn't believe them they go 571 00:21:14,830 --> 00:21:12,080 home and their own parents don't believe 572 00:21:17,909 --> 00:21:14,840 them so the people of authority the 573 00:21:19,510 --> 00:21:17,919 grown-ups we're just telling shush it's 574 00:21:22,630 --> 00:21:19,520 you know it's just make-believe it's not 575 00:21:26,070 --> 00:21:22,640 true or the you know emily's case 576 00:21:28,710 --> 00:21:26,080 strict christian fundamentalist parents 577 00:21:31,669 --> 00:21:28,720 which that incident did not partake in 578 00:21:33,350 --> 00:21:31,679 their world views at all so she grew up 579 00:21:36,230 --> 00:21:33,360 harboring these feelings this 580 00:21:38,870 --> 00:21:36,240 post-traumatic stress that she has 581 00:21:40,390 --> 00:21:38,880 with dealing with what she witnessed and 582 00:21:42,149 --> 00:21:40,400 as a person growing up after you 583 00:21:43,590 --> 00:21:42,159 witnessed something like that 584 00:21:45,669 --> 00:21:43,600 my hat's off to her because i don't know 585 00:21:47,990 --> 00:21:45,679 how you function after that um you know 586 00:21:50,149 --> 00:21:48,000 such a sighting so profound 587 00:21:51,669 --> 00:21:50,159 uh and a shared sighting with that so 588 00:21:52,630 --> 00:21:51,679 you know that you weren't crazy that you 589 00:21:54,310 --> 00:21:52,640 didn't 590 00:21:57,270 --> 00:21:54,320 imagine this this was 591 00:21:58,789 --> 00:21:57,280 a whole school yard of kids 592 00:21:59,750 --> 00:21:58,799 that's crazy 593 00:22:01,430 --> 00:21:59,760 it is 594 00:22:03,270 --> 00:22:01,440 and and you know some of the some 595 00:22:06,470 --> 00:22:03,280 parents i mean the parents were really 596 00:22:08,230 --> 00:22:06,480 important how they reacted yeah uh some 597 00:22:11,029 --> 00:22:08,240 parents were like 598 00:22:14,390 --> 00:22:11,039 were some parents were okay with it like 599 00:22:17,510 --> 00:22:14,400 even the the more um 600 00:22:20,070 --> 00:22:17,520 the native cultures had a very 601 00:22:21,990 --> 00:22:20,080 i think those kids are okay because of 602 00:22:23,830 --> 00:22:22,000 the fact that they were more like okay 603 00:22:25,510 --> 00:22:23,840 we believe that you probably did see 604 00:22:28,549 --> 00:22:25,520 something you know 605 00:22:29,750 --> 00:22:28,559 whereas you know the more uh western 606 00:22:31,590 --> 00:22:29,760 world 607 00:22:33,669 --> 00:22:31,600 parents not all of them it really 608 00:22:35,909 --> 00:22:33,679 depended on how the parents reacted what 609 00:22:38,630 --> 00:22:35,919 what the parents belief system was was 610 00:22:40,710 --> 00:22:38,640 how they treated their kids right and so 611 00:22:42,789 --> 00:22:40,720 in a lot of cases that wasn't okay you 612 00:22:46,470 --> 00:22:42,799 know it wasn't good for the child 613 00:22:48,149 --> 00:22:46,480 in other cases it was um so it's very 614 00:22:49,990 --> 00:22:48,159 it's complex the whole thing is very 615 00:22:51,350 --> 00:22:50,000 complex when you really look at every 616 00:22:53,909 --> 00:22:51,360 individual 617 00:22:56,470 --> 00:22:53,919 person but but well said i'm glad you 618 00:22:58,789 --> 00:22:56,480 brought that up yeah yeah we were 619 00:23:00,950 --> 00:22:58,799

00:24:27,840 sure i think i the the word i always use 663 00:24:30,470 --> 00:24:28,960 is 664 00:24:33,029 --> 00:24:30,480 i mean how do you how do you wrap your 665 00:24:35,110 --> 00:24:33,039

anything in our science fiction war 669 00:24:43,590 --> 00:24:40,480 really 670 00:24:44,789 --> 00:24:43,600 not the real thing yeah and yeah i mean 671 00:24:47,029 --> 00:24:44,799 it's 672

or it's some 675 00:24:57,110 --> 00:24:54,559 kind of spiritual thing it's just 676 00:24:59,350 --> 00:24:57,120 you you're your mind is constantly going 677 00:25:02,390 --> 00:24:59,360 over it trying to figure it out and it's 678 00:25:04,789 --> 00:25:02,400 beyond you figuring it out yeah yeah it 679 00:25:07,510 --> 00:25:04,799 is it goes in the loop 680 00:25:09,350 --> 00:25:07,520 you know well it's an alien experience 681 00:25:11,190 --> 00:25:09,360 not just alien in the sense of these 682 00:25:15,830 --> 00:25:11,200 entities but it's an experience that is 683 00:25:19,350 --> 00:25:17,750 and there's a lot more people around 684 00:25:23,029 --> 00:25:19,360 this world who are 685 00:25:24,870 --> 00:25:23,039 again afraid to talk yeah keep it quiet 686 00:25:27,190

00:26:08,480 you said the metoo movement well maybe 708 00:26:12,710 --> 00:26:11,120 we're the last people to get hurt 709 00:26:14,710 --> 00:26:12,720 everybody else has gotten hurt right 710 00:26:15,990 --> 00:26:14,720 well there's a whole group of people we 711 00:26:17,430 --> 00:26:16,000 haven't been hurt 712 00:26:20,390 --> 00:26:17,440 because everybody thinks we've been 713 00:26:22,710 --> 00:26:20,400 crazy well we haven't yeah but it's time 714 00:26:24,630 --> 00:26:22,720 to speak out and um one of them yeah 715 00:26:26,230 --> 00:26:24,640 it's you know everybody that we talk to 716 00:26:27,830 --> 00:26:26,240 on this podcast 717 00:26:29,590 --> 00:26:27,840 all have similar things that they're 718 00:26:32,230 --> 00:26:29,600 saying is that we need to talk more 719 00:26:33,590 --> 00:26:32,240 about it the abduction phenomenon and 720 00:26:34,950 --> 00:26:33,600 the witnessing of 721 00:26:36,310 --> 00:26:34,960 of entities 722 00:26:38,230 --> 00:26:36,320 that seems to be something that they're 723 00:26:39,990 --> 00:26:38,240 not going to address in the media 724 00:26:41,990 --> 00:26:40,000 anytime soon they're just talking about 725 00:26:44,630 --> 00:26:42,000 the crafts getting people used to the 726 00:26:46,230 --> 00:26:44,640 idea that we have stuff flying around 727 00:26:48,310 --> 00:26:46,240 but the abduction phenomenon the 728 00:26:49,029 --> 00:26:48,320 interaction between these entities and 729 00:26:50,789 --> 00:26:49,039 us 730 00:26:52,710 --> 00:26:50,799 is a lot more 731 00:26:55,029 --> 00:26:52,720 common like you mentioned 732 00:26:57,990 --> 00:26:55,039 than is spoken about right so that's 733 00:27:00,870 --> 00:26:58,000 what this me 2fo or if you will 734 00:27:03,269 --> 00:27:00,880 uh concept is is about it's like getting 735 00:27:05,430 --> 00:27:03,279 people to stand up and speak out this 736 00:27:07,909 --> 00:27:05,440 movie does that brilliantly i really 737 00:27:09,669 --> 00:27:07,919 think that you did an amazing job 738 00:27:11,830 --> 00:27:09,679 one of the things that i loved about it 739 00:27:13,110 --> 00:27:11,840 was the description of the entities 740 00:27:15,190 --> 00:27:13,120 themselves 741 00:27:17,430 --> 00:27:15,200 uh the way that they would float or seem 742 00:27:20,070 --> 00:27:17,440 like they would float on the ground 743 00:27:22,549 --> 00:27:20,080 appear disappear just like an electron 744 00:27:24,549 --> 00:27:22,559 would you know appear one spot appear 745 00:27:26,870 --> 00:27:24,559 reappear in another spot and they all 746 00:27:28,789 --> 00:27:26,880 witnessed this for about 15 minutes i 747 00:27:31,909 --> 00:27:28,799 thought it was a lot shorter than that 748 00:27:35,029 --> 00:27:31,919 me too yeah so 15 minutes this is a long 749 00:27:37,190 --> 00:27:35,039 time that's a substantial sighting with 750 00:27:39,190 --> 00:27:37,200 a lot of people 751 00:27:41,029 --> 00:27:39,200 yeah i can't account for that entire 15 752 00:27:42,230 --> 00:27:41,039 to be honest with you as a researcher so 753 00:27:44,149 --> 00:27:42,240 i don't know 754 00:27:46,070 --> 00:27:44,159 what else happened there to be honest i 755 00:27:48,070 --> 00:27:46,080 don't know it just it does raise a 756 00:27:49,750 --> 00:27:48,080 question in my mind right that's an 757 00:27:51,830 --> 00:27:49,760 awfully long time 758 00:27:53,669 --> 00:27:51,840 because you even have the uh two ladies 759 00:27:55,430 --> 00:27:53,679 at the end of the movie saying that they 760 00:27:57,669 --> 00:27:55,440 blocked a lot of this out or a lot of 761 00:28:00,230 --> 00:27:57,679 the stuff has been blocked out that's 762 00:28:02,789 --> 00:28:00,240 normal yeah and with time the kids were 763 00:28:03,590 --> 00:28:02,799 saying time felt different within like 764 00:28:07,510 --> 00:28:03,600 this 765 00:28:10,310 --> 00:28:07,520 something that you hear a lot from 766 00:28:12,230 --> 00:28:10,320 people that have these um 767 00:28:14,630 --> 00:28:12,240 interactions with these entities is that 768 00:28:16,310 --> 00:28:14,640 time seems to slow down and things don't 769 00:28:17,510 --> 00:28:16,320 make sense they jump from one place to 770 00:28:20,230 --> 00:28:17,520 another 771 00:28:22,950 --> 00:28:20,240 this is one of the well documentary uh 772 00:28:25,269 --> 00:28:22,960 well-documented cases for sure and yeah 773 00:28:28,070 --> 00:28:25,279 thank you for making that movie 774 00:28:29,750 --> 00:28:28,080 thank you it's been uh i'm glad it's 775 00:28:31,909 --> 00:28:29,760 it's finally out into the world and 776 00:28:33,590 --> 00:28:31,919 other people can see it and i hope the 777 00:28:35,909 --> 00:28:33,600 world sees it 778 00:28:36,950 --> 00:28:35,919 just to give you know 779 00:28:40,230 --> 00:28:36,960 if people 780 00:28:41,990 --> 00:28:40,240 look the military's addressing it 781 00:28:44,070 --> 00:28:42,000 right we're going to see a big change 782 00:28:46,389 --> 00:28:44,080 because the military has come out and 783 00:28:47,750 --> 00:28:46,399 they're addressing it our planet is 784 00:28:49,750 --> 00:28:47,760 addressing it 785 00:28:50,870 --> 00:28:49,760 that's never happened before 786 00:28:52,470 --> 00:28:50,880 so 787 00:28:54,710 --> 00:28:52,480 there's likely a 788 00:28:56,310 --> 00:28:54,720 very good reason for that 789 00:28:58,950 --> 00:28:56,320 yeah 790 00:29:00,470 --> 00:28:58,960 because they this is a big card 791 00:29:03,350 --> 00:29:00,480 uh to drop 792 00:29:05,350 --> 00:29:03,360 and uh not an easy one because of the 793 00:29:08,070 --> 00:29:05,360 fear of public panic from their 794 00:29:10,870 --> 00:29:08,080 perspective but i understand that too 795 00:29:12,710 --> 00:29:10,880 um but it's a different day and and i i 796 00:29:14,630 --> 00:29:12,720 look forward to us having these 797 00:29:16,389 --> 00:29:14,640 conversations for real 798 00:29:19,029 --> 00:29:16,399 because we need to have them and you 799 00:29:22,470 --> 00:29:19,039 know we are a small ball floating out in 800 00:29:24,230 --> 00:29:22,480 the middle of a enormous place which 801 00:29:26,630 --> 00:29:24,240 you know are we we're still discovering 802 00:29:28,230 --> 00:29:26,640 species in our oceans and our woods 803 00:29:30,070 --> 00:29:28,240 yeah so 804 00:29:32,710 --> 00:29:30,080 god only knows what's out there but we 805 00:29:35,590 --> 00:29:32,720 should start paying attention 806 00:29:37,669 --> 00:29:35,600 yeah it's the height of the mining 807 00:29:39,510 --> 00:29:37,679 what's their what's their endgame what's 808 00:29:41,269 --> 00:29:39,520 their interest in us 809 00:29:42,630 --> 00:29:41,279 yeah really 810 00:29:44,630 --> 00:29:42,640 yeah i'm wondering if we're at the 811 00:29:46,870 --> 00:29:44,640 bottom of the total poll too right which 812 00:29:48,310 --> 00:29:46,880 is most likely the case uh if they're 813 00:29:50,710 --> 00:29:48,320 able to come here 814 00:29:52,549 --> 00:29:50,720 we're not as advanced as they are by far 815 00:29:54,149 --> 00:29:52,559 we haven't even got all out of our solar 816 00:29:55,990 --> 00:29:54,159 system we haven't we're just beginning 817 00:29:56,870 --> 00:29:56,000 to get off our planet 818 00:29:58,630 --> 00:29:56,880 like 819 00:30:00,230 --> 00:29:58,640 it's actually perfect timing for them to 820 00:30:02,710 --> 00:30:00,240 show up because they're like yeah we 821 00:30:04,630 --> 00:30:02,720 want to make before those little things 822 00:30:06,789 --> 00:30:04,640 with legs and arms or whatever 823 00:30:08,470 --> 00:30:06,799 get off their planet we better see what 824 00:30:10,310 --> 00:30:08,480 they're up to 825 00:30:12,310 --> 00:30:10,320 because we're coming out into 826 00:30:15,029 --> 00:30:12,320 essentially maybe 827 00:30:16,870 --> 00:30:15,039 somebody else's neighborhood yeah 828 00:30:18,389 --> 00:30:16,880 and you know the funny thing about this 829 00:30:21,029 --> 00:30:18,399 phenomenon is that we keep hearing what 830 00:30:23,350 --> 00:30:21,039 we want the military to to address it or 831 00:30:25,110 --> 00:30:23,360 to deal with it the problem is that 832 00:30:26,549 --> 00:30:25,120 these entities seem to don't really care 833 00:30:29,029 --> 00:30:26,559 so much about the military they're 834 00:30:31,029 --> 00:30:29,039 dealing with people in everyday lives or 835 00:30:32,950 --> 00:30:31,039 appearing to people in everyday lives so 836 00:30:34,470 --> 00:30:32,960 you hear about these one-off abductions 837 00:30:37,110 --> 00:30:34,480 where somebody gets taken while they're 838 00:30:38,870 --> 00:30:37,120 driving home so the 839 00:30:40,630 --> 00:30:38,880 we want the government to say something 840 00:30:42,789 --> 00:30:40,640 but i think ultimately they can't do 841 00:30:44,630 --> 00:30:42,799 anything about it they're not ever going 842 00:30:47,269 --> 00:30:44,640 to be fast enough to catch these things 843 00:30:50,310 --> 00:30:47,279 like we know they go from 80 000 feet to 844 00:30:52,950 --> 00:30:50,320 5 feet above the water within a fraction 845 00:30:54,870 --> 00:30:52,960 of a second you can't send a jet fast 846 00:30:57,190 --> 00:30:54,880 enough to intervene one of these things 847 00:30:59,590 --> 00:30:57,200 like there's literally nothing they can 848 00:31:01,669 --> 00:30:59,600 do and i think that's part of the fear 849 00:31:04,630 --> 00:31:01,679 is that saying like look regardless of 850 00:31:07,350 --> 00:31:04,640 the technology that we have drones you 851 00:31:09,830 --> 00:31:07,360 know nuclear weapons all that will not 852 00:31:11,110 --> 00:31:09,840 do a single thing to be able to catch up 853 00:31:12,870 --> 00:31:11,120 to these things 854 00:31:15,350 --> 00:31:12,880 and that's part of the technology as 855 00:31:17,190 --> 00:31:15,360 well which is a huge part of ufology is 856 00:31:18,789 --> 00:31:17,200 like what are they 857 00:31:20,710 --> 00:31:18,799 worthy from 858 00:31:23,350 --> 00:31:20,720 and what do they want like why are they 859 00:31:25,269 --> 00:31:23,360 appearing at schools uh this uh school 860 00:31:27,029 --> 00:31:25,279 incident obviously is not the first one 861 00:31:29,269 --> 00:31:27,039 there's been multiple other incidences 862 00:31:31,430 --> 00:31:29,279 as well right correct 863 00:31:33,269 --> 00:31:31,440 yeah there's one in the uk very similar 864 00:31:36,470 --> 00:31:33,279 as well schools 865 00:31:39,190 --> 00:31:36,480 craft yeah russia florida 866 00:31:41,430 --> 00:31:39,200 south america chile 867 00:31:42,310 --> 00:31:41,440 i mean there's a bunch that i'm aware of 868 00:31:44,549 --> 00:31:42,320 right 869 00:31:47,269 --> 00:31:44,559 and some of them had did interviews with 870 00:31:49,590 --> 00:31:47,279 the kids not not quite as extensive as 871 00:31:51,830 --> 00:31:49,600 ariel but there are other cases that 872 00:31:53,669 --> 00:31:51,840 exist that i you know there's some other 873 00:31:56,549 --> 00:31:53,679 people out there that know some of them 874 00:31:58,389 --> 00:31:56,559 but um i mean i 875 00:32:00,549 --> 00:31:58,399 explored that because 876 00:32:01,990 --> 00:32:00,559 why are these all primary schools 877 00:32:03,750 --> 00:32:02,000 mm-hmm 878 00:32:05,190 --> 00:32:03,760 yeah that that one is 879 00:32:06,630 --> 00:32:05,200 why are they talking to kids yeah 880 00:32:08,789 --> 00:32:06,640 exactly 881 00:32:10,710 --> 00:32:08,799 they don't come to older establishments 882 00:32:12,070 --> 00:32:10,720 and and reveal things like that they go 883 00:32:14,710 --> 00:32:12,080 to schools 884 00:32:16,789 --> 00:32:14,720 right and in a certain like to me that 885 00:32:18,789 --> 00:32:16,799 would have been my elementary school you 886 00:32:20,870 --> 00:32:18,799 know third at my school it was third 887 00:32:22,789 --> 00:32:20,880 grade to sixth grade 888 00:32:25,029 --> 00:32:22,799 um and that's where primary schools are 889 00:32:27,750 --> 00:32:25,039 essentially this was a a little extended 890 00:32:30,230 --> 00:32:27,760 it went from six years old to 891 00:32:31,110 --> 00:32:30,240 you know kindergarten to seventh grade 892 00:32:33,750 --> 00:32:31,120 right 893 00:32:36,310 --> 00:32:33,760 so they had a wider spectrum of ages but 894 00:32:38,149 --> 00:32:36,320 the primary affected ages 895 00:32:40,310 --> 00:32:38,159 in my opinion 896 00:32:41,830 --> 00:32:40,320 were those same element third grade to 897 00:32:43,110 --> 00:32:41,840 six 898 00:32:45,029 --> 00:32:43,120 i know you mentioned in the movie that 899 00:32:46,470 --> 00:32:45,039 they they didn't interview all the kids 900 00:32:48,789 --> 00:32:46,480 at once right like they thought some of 901 00:32:50,870 --> 00:32:48,799 the younger ones initially 902 00:32:51,990 --> 00:32:50,880 their story may not be as credible so 903 00:32:53,909 --> 00:32:52,000 the school 904 00:32:55,830 --> 00:32:53,919 focused on it about the credibility of 905 00:32:59,110 --> 00:32:55,840 the stories it was the fact that they 906 00:33:00,789 --> 00:32:59,120 did not want to try to traumatize okay 907 00:33:03,029 --> 00:33:00,799 the younger kids 908 00:33:05,430 --> 00:33:03,039 because they were concerned about the 909 00:33:07,190 --> 00:33:05,440 younger kids so they didn't have those 910 00:33:08,950 --> 00:33:07,200 younger kids draw 911 00:33:11,029 --> 00:33:08,960 they didn't interview those younger kids 912 00:33:12,710 --> 00:33:11,039 so there's a lot more witnesses than 913 00:33:15,509 --> 00:33:12,720 yeah we're aware of 914 00:33:16,470 --> 00:33:15,519 uh the school knows this 915 00:33:18,389 --> 00:33:16,480 um 916 00:33:20,470 --> 00:33:18,399 because and i think they made the proper 917 00:33:23,590 --> 00:33:20,480 decision at the time because those 918 00:33:25,269 --> 00:33:23,600 younger kids were pretty shaken up 919 00:33:26,950 --> 00:33:25,279 worse than the older kids and they 920 00:33:29,509 --> 00:33:26,960 decided to just 921 00:33:31,269 --> 00:33:29,519 remove them from the situation 922 00:33:32,630 --> 00:33:31,279 yeah and i think that was a wise move 923 00:33:35,590 --> 00:33:32,640 however 924 00:33:39,430 --> 00:33:35,600 those children are 925 00:33:43,110 --> 00:33:39,440 still around and they're in their 926 00:33:45,029 --> 00:33:43,120 late 20s early 30s now and uh 927 00:33:47,830 --> 00:33:45,039 they're starting to speak up 928 00:33:50,470 --> 00:33:47,840 so i've talked to several of them 929 00:33:53,190 --> 00:33:51,669 interviewed 930 00:33:55,029 --> 00:33:53,200 one that's in the film but there are 931 00:33:58,389 --> 00:33:55,039 others um 932 00:34:00,389 --> 00:33:58,399 others also who have pretty good careers 933 00:34:03,269 --> 00:34:00,399 they don't wanna 934 00:34:04,630 --> 00:34:03,279 um have disrupted um 935 00:34:06,549 --> 00:34:04,640 but 936 00:34:10,790 --> 00:34:06,559 there's there's let's put it to see this 937 00:34:13,349 --> 00:34:12,230 is do you think there'll be a part two 938 00:34:15,510 --> 00:34:13,359 then 939 00:34:17,510 --> 00:34:15,520 i don't know i mean i'm not really like 940 00:34:20,230 --> 00:34:17,520 going i want to do something different 941 00:34:24,149 --> 00:34:20,240 right because you've been on it so 942 00:34:26,310 --> 00:34:24,159 well my wish is that is is that 943 00:34:28,470 --> 00:34:26,320 you know i did my work to get the story 944 00:34:31,190 --> 00:34:28,480 seen and i i really just want to give it 945 00:34:33,109 --> 00:34:31,200 to the witnesses and give it to the 946 00:34:34,470 --> 00:34:33,119 the people that saw something and let 947 00:34:36,230 --> 00:34:34,480 them speak 948 00:34:37,349 --> 00:34:36,240 you know and let them come out and let 949 00:34:39,270 --> 00:34:37,359 them 950 00:34:40,710 --> 00:34:39,280 on in whatever time they need to but i 951 00:34:42,869 --> 00:34:40,720 know they're there 952 00:34:45,270 --> 00:34:42,879 yeah

you're concerned was it just a few of 957 00:34:55,909 --> 00:34:54,800 them that received it 958 00:34:57,510 --> 00:34:55,919 in my 959 00:34:58,950 --> 00:34:57,520 opinion 960 00:35:01,510 --> 00:34:58,960 i mean i can only give you my 961 00:35:03,349 --> 00:35:01,520 perspective and the perspective of who i 962 00:35:04,540 --> 00:35:03,359 talked to figuring out where they were 963 00:35:06,230 --> 00:35:04,550 on the fields 964 00:35:08,310 --> 00:35:06,240 [Music] 965 00:35:10,630 --> 00:35:08,320 the ones that had that experience were 966 00:35:13,829 --> 00:35:10,640 the closest to 967 00:35:14,630 --> 00:35:13,839 the object the craft and the creature 968 00:35:17,190 --> 00:35:14,640 okay 969 00:35:19,109 --> 00:35:17,200 i mean this is an enormous playground 970 00:35:22,150 --> 00:35:19,119 i gotta do the air you can go on google 971 00:35:24,630 --> 00:35:22,160 earth and look at the size of this uh 972 00:35:26,870 --> 00:35:24,640 an element you know

expensive private school right it wasn't 976 00:35:40,310 --> 00:35:37,599 like uh somewhere in the projects this 977 00:35:41,670 --> 00:35:40,320 was uh an accredited and well-respected 978 00:35:43,670 --> 00:35:41,680 place 979 00:35:46,950 --> 00:35:43,680 well it became that way it was started 980 00:35:49,510 --> 00:35:46,960 by the farming community in in the rural 981 00:35:52,710 --> 00:35:49,520 areas and uh 982 00:35:54,390 --> 00:35:52,720 it was a farmhouse and 1991 and this 983 00:35:55,589 --> 00:35:54,400 came from one of the witnesses because 984 00:35:58,550 -->

00:41:06,150 --> 00:41:03,599 beer to get a drone shot that is not 1127 00:41:09,589 --> 00:41:06,160 that at all that is not a bad trade 1128 00:41:11,349 --> 00:41:09,599 that's guerrilla filmmaking eh yeah 1129 00:41:14,550 --> 00:41:11,359 and like i said you captured these 1130 00:41:15,990 --> 00:41:14,560 moments um especially with the 1131 00:41:17,430 --> 00:41:16,000 the people that you've interviewed and 1132 00:41:19,589 --> 00:41:17,440 there's a lot of them that you've 1133 00:41:21,910 --> 00:41:19,599 actually tracked down and interviewed 1134 00:41:24,069 --> 00:41:21,920 and i love the fact that it doesn't seem 1135 00:41:26,309 --> 00:41:24,079 like you were intruding on them that so 1136 00:41:27,589 --> 00:41:26,319 you were just capturing the moment 1137 00:41:29,349 --> 00:41:27,599 as it was happening because some of 1138 00:41:31,510 --> 00:41:29,359 these documentaries you can tell it's 1139 00:41:33,430 --> 00:41:31,520 like they restage things 1140 00:41:34,790 --> 00:41:33,440 uh you know let's have you standing here 1141 00:41:36,470 --> 00:41:34,800 or whatever for you you were just 1142 00:41:38,630 --> 00:41:36,480 following her around 1143 00:41:41,270 --> 00:41:38,640 and like i said it was a beautiful film 1144 00:41:43,589 --> 00:41:41,280 it gave it that um 1145 00:41:46,390 --> 00:41:43,599 an emotional impact as well so it's not 1146 00:41:49,190 --> 00:41:46,400 just the visual story of the the movie 1147 00:41:51,270 --> 00:41:49,200 but also i you know i think you you did 1148 00:41:52,790 --> 00:41:51,280 really well and getting the human side 1149 00:41:56,470 --> 00:41:52,800 of the story as well 1150 00:41:58,710 --> 00:41:56,480 yeah that was important to me i i um 1151 00:42:00,950 --> 00:41:58,720 i know this may sound 1152 00:42:02,710 --> 00:42:00,960 i don't know how it sounds but i i was 1153 00:42:05,270 --> 00:42:02,720 doing a lot of wildlife 1154 00:42:07,349 --> 00:42:05,280 filming photography 1155 00:42:09,030 --> 00:42:07,359 and i wanted to approach this film like 1156 00:42:11,910 --> 00:42:09,040 i would approach a wildlife film like 1157 00:42:15,190 --> 00:42:11,920 let them exist and do their thing yeah 1158 00:42:18,230 --> 00:42:15,200 and just observe and respect and just 1159 00:42:20,550 --> 00:42:18,240 capture the moments yeah you know and 1160 00:42:23,030 --> 00:42:20,560 sometimes you're caught off guard like 1161 00:42:25,430 --> 00:42:23,040 i'm behind i'm behind the main character 1162 00:42:27,030 --> 00:42:25,440 shooting from behind not good 1163 00:42:29,430 --> 00:42:27,040 but you know 1164 00:42:34,309 --> 00:42:32,069 it's real it's really what happened so 1165 00:42:36,390 --> 00:42:34,319 you got to think about positioning a lot 1166 00:42:38,630 --> 00:42:36,400 like where do i want to be and if i move 1167 00:42:41,670 --> 00:42:38,640 there am i going to change the dynamics 1168 00:42:43,349 --> 00:42:41,680 in the room so i lose the reality 1169 00:42:45,349 --> 00:42:43,359 so it's like in wildlife you just want 1170 00:42:46,870 --> 00:42:45,359 to be quiet and hidden so you don't 1171 00:42:49,190 --> 00:42:46,880 affect the scene 1172 00:42:51,190 --> 00:42:49,200 whatever a leopard's doing or whatever 1173 00:42:53,510 --> 00:42:51,200 the creature is 1174 00:42:55,910 --> 00:42:53,520 and i approached it the same way and i 1175 00:42:57,589 --> 00:42:55,920 i kind of want to do that because 1176 00:42:59,030 --> 00:42:57,599 in my next work i want to do the same 1177 00:43:01,829 --> 00:42:59,040 thing because 1178 00:43:03,510 --> 00:43:01,839 i'm not interfering with the story 1179 00:43:05,510 --> 00:43:03,520 and i don't want to interfere with the 1180 00:43:07,349 --> 00:43:05,520 story i want to tell the story 1181 00:43:08,710 --> 00:43:07,359 but i don't want to interfere with it i 1182 00:43:09,750 --> 00:43:08,720 don't want to 1183 00:43:12,150 --> 00:43:09,760 cut 1184 00:43:14,309 --> 00:43:12,160 and say oh we got gotta you know change 1185 00:43:16,390 --> 00:43:14,319 that mic i mean sometimes you gotta do 1186 00:43:18,710 --> 00:43:16,400 stuff like that but thank god we didn't 1187 00:43:21,990 --> 00:43:18,720 we had backups for that stuff so if we 1188 00:43:23,829 --> 00:43:22,000 lost something we didn't have to stop 1189 00:43:25,190 --> 00:43:23,839 um and i that's the last thing i wanted 1190 00:43:28,550 --> 00:43:25,200 to do was stop 1191 00:43:30,150 --> 00:43:28,560 real from happening yeah yeah because 1192 00:43:32,069 --> 00:43:30,160 her journey
