ATTACHMENT SPOTLIGHT - Jebediah: Are We OK? 🎶🎸

"Back in April, I stepped onto Jebediah: Are We OK? as a Screenwest BTL attachment right as the project was heading into the final stages of post-production. By that point, the film had already been eleven years in the making - bringing together over 11,000 clips, thirty years of band archive, rare photos, music, and graphics into one cohesive 90-minute story.

I jumped in across post-production and stayed on through the theatrical release campaign, working across press and publicity. Working alongside Brooke, Arlo, and the post team taught me so much about the practical reality of finishing and releasing a financed feature doc. Such an invaluable project to be a part of while continuing to build my own producing and post-production foundation.

Huge thanks to @screenwest and @lotterywest for supporting the attachment!"
