After I chased him around awhile we wound up finding his whole family, 3 moms and 3 beggar kids, we talked to them and interviewed them. You’ll have to wait for the documentary to see the result!

Exciting Things Afoot…

Hi everyone, welcome back or welcome to the blog. It’s been awhile since I have “blogged” and while I have missed it I really didn’t have much to blog about. There was only enough going on for a Facebook status update or 3. (And usually those would turn into all out opinion wars.)  But now something has come up that is definitely worth blogging about.

One of my dreams in the last 15 years or so was to make a feature length documentary. I had lots of ideas for documentaries (even attempted to hitchhike across America while making one) but nothing really worked.

Fast forward to China… I have now been living in China for over 5 years. I have really grown to love it here and feel extremely blessed to live here with my family and watch China transform. With the transformation comes a wealth of stories. For someone who loves documentaries it is an awesome opportunity now to make something happen.

A few months ago I had a chance encounter (my life is full of these) with someone who has recently made a documentary and would like to do another larger scale one. He has asked me to help him and so for the last month we have been in pre-production mode to make it happen. ALOT of things have come together and now we have finalized the budget and have garnered the board’s approval for the budget. It’s going to happen.

There is no way I can communicate here how excited I am about this. Like I said before, it’s a lifelong dream and… wow, I am undeserving!

STAY TUNED…   peace, roger

ps. I also hope to keep my other musings and ramblings on here as well…
