So awhile back I emailed the Los Angeles County Fire Department and asked about doing a documentaries series there. They emailed me back and told me to contact my local representative. I called a few times but no answer. So I went down to a nearby fire station and asked them. They asked me a few questions and gave me (another) number to call. Said that the people I will talk to just want to know if it's personal or school work, if I want to make money off it, what exactly I would want to do and so on. So far none of them said I can't do it so there's hope.
My goal for this project is to document for 5 years.
A project I am going to start on is one based off Larry Sultan's The Valley. I met another P1 and turns out he produces fetish porn. He agreed to me tagging along and documenting the shoots. Sadly he films in an area about an hour (and a half with traffic) away. Due to bus and trains routes, it only makes sense to drive. But I only have my permit, so I have to wait until I get my license. After I get porn checked off, I'll have TV, movie, YouTube and possibly radio and podcast left. I want to show all the hard work that into all these form of entertainment.
My goal for this project is to finish within 10 years.
