This short-form student documentary is a character study of a man who dedicated 40 years of his life to finding the skunk ape (bigfoot of the Florida Everglades). We had a crew of four, three months, and a $500 budget. We made two trips to the Everglades and camped there overnight. I used the Canon XH-A1 and split shooting with a crew member. We jointly edited the piece using Final Cut Pro. Great collaboration helped pull everything together and make it the superior piece (out of seven) of our documentary production class at Florida State University.
