Broadcast Premiere

I watched the documentary’s broadcast premiere last night on both television and my computer. There was a couple second delay between the two, which created an interesting sense of deja vu. This was a very different experience from the NJN premiere, since I was home alone watching the show on two small screens as opposed to seeing it on the big screen with 200 other people.

Tune In

It is hard to believe but tonight Our Vanishing Past will have its broadcast premiere! Tune in at 9 pm on NJN. If you live outside the NJN viewing area you can watch the show on njn.net when it is streamed live at 9 pm. Follow the link below.

A Night to Remember

 

The day of the premiere was a whirlwind. I picked up my two children Victoria and Richard from their respective schools early, so that we could get ready for the premiere of Our Vanishing Past. My son kept asking “Do I have to wear a suit?” While my daughter wanted to know if she could wear heels, even though she was still recovering from a sprained ankle.

 

At 2:30 we headed into the studio to check out the set-up of the HD equipment. As we watched the documentary play on the big screen I was truly impressed with the quality of “high definition”. The colors and architectural details were so vivid. The buildings seemed to be more true to life. We gave the studio crew a “thumbs up” and went upstairs to my office.

Premiere

Okay, so it’s not the red carpet type in Hollywood, but it is a Premiere and you are invited! Tuesday, May 6^th at 5 pm at NJN Studios in Trenton. Be there to see Our Vanishing Past in High Definition on the big screen. Just RSVP on line at this website. We already have close to 150 people registered, but the studio holds more than 300 so there is plenty of room.

Snap Shot Project

I am really excited about our Snap Shot Project. When I was producing Our Vanishing Past (OVP) I got to meet so many great people when we were taping stories at different locations. People who love history and old buildings.

 

As I would tell them about some of the places that were going to be in the documentary, nearly every person I spoke with would ask me a common question. “Is (fill-in-the-blank) going to be in the show?”
