I plan to start the filming this week for the Summertown documentary that has yet to be named. I will be filming scenic shots of Summertown and the surrounding area to use in the documentary. I am also starting to build the web site for the documentary which will be located at the SummertownTN.com domain that I own and currently points to the High School’s web site. We are hoping to line up interviews with local historians and others in the community to get stories. We will also be advertising this more as we get closer to needing assistance from the community with photos, documents and anything anyone might have. Stay tuned and we will have pictures and videos of the production process as we go…

I have always been a filmmaker at heart. Even when I was a kid anytime I could do a school project video, I did. My brother, Jeff, and I would make hilarious films, which I wish I could find and convert them for all to see. Jeff and I have always talked about filming a documentary, but never had the equipment or the idea of what to do, well now we do!

If you look back through my posts you will find that I had planned on converting my basement into a home theater/Man Cave for about a year now. Well on June 14th construction began! There will be a theater area, card table area and a bar in "The Man Cave". We are almost done with the framing and only have 1 wall left to do and it is only about 6 ft long so it should be knocked out pretty quick. I am finishing up the wiring in the completed walls now and wiring all of the surround sound speakers for the Theater area. I will be posting the construction updates and photos here after major items are completed. The goal is to complete the man cave by Sept. so I can watch footbal on a 120" Screen! Stay tuned!
