All over but the shouting

The rough cut is 40:31. Script is 22 pages, being dissected by Dr. Bailey. Listening to that whole thing at half-speed, I found various bits that needed to be excised, and that will be done after I get the rough script back.

Voiceover will be done by Alex Reed, who has a much better hockey voice than I do.

Notable bit--a week late, but Todd McCormick came across a few episodes of Kicksave. I would like to put this all online, and I think that will be part of it.

Home stretch

I'm halfway through transcribing the rough-cut, which came to 40:31. This will be chopped to 30. It will not air in March as I had hoped, unless I'm able to do the rest of everything in record time (considering the rest of my life that I have to factor in there). But it is almost completely done.

I still exist!

It seems like it's been a lot longer since I've updated this--I've been in the studio. About done with the editing, but have Dr. Haptonstall giving one more interview tomorrow. I plan to have the speech all done by Wednesday night, transcribed before Friday, and music added by Monday.

I seem to update this weekly

Hope that's not too slow for you kids.

Calling Don Hatfield (former Huntington Advertiser hockey writer circa 1956) this afternoon. In the meantime, putting together a first cut of the final product. We're in the home stretch, kiddos...

Had another chat with Ernie

Talked for about an hour at WMUL; was quite a blast.

Tomorrow I will be trying to get a hold of a few people, primarily for the purpose of getting a hold of a few other people to fill in some blanks. I've been chopping up my already-done interviews into smaller bits, and will be arranging those afterward. If I have any interviews during/after that, I will slot it in wherever I can.
