We're actively preparing for our April 11 departure to Tel Aviv. This past week we spent three days in Arizona checking equipment, rehearsing interview procedures, and carrying equipment out into the field to review our approaches to filming and photographing. We also tested small 2-way radios that let us keep in communication in crowded or remote venues. The radios have a range of up to 5 miles.
We're refining our list of geographic vantage points, sites, and events that we want to film. A highlight will be the Palm Sunday procession down the Mount of Olives into the old city, an event in which thousands of people from all over the world participate. We're also setting some specific image and footage goals for ourselves such as getting time-lapse footage of sunrise gradually illuminating the snows of Mt Hermon.
Our focus is now changing to logistical details and scripting. We'll be working in Arizona again in mid-March for a few days to finish up final preparations and equipment checks.
Please post any comments or suggestions!
