Production Log
     In September of 2009, we started shooting in northern New England, following the brilliant Fall foliage from north to south in all six of the New England states. Along the way, we've conducted interviews with, historians, bridge wrights, engineers and bridge enthusiast.

     Shooting continued into the winter including a horse and carriage shoot in Rhode Island and a trip to Stark, NH to shoot Christmas lights on what turned out to be the coldest day in 30 years.

     We wanted to cover all seasons, so we continued to shoot in the Spring and Summer of 2010, once again visiting all of the New England states. Shooting wrapped up in August with the moving of a bridge in CT. 

     By the end of September, the rough cut was complete and the narration of long time New England radio personality Charlie Jefferds was added in early October.

     Editing finished at the end of October 2010 and we created the first HD masters for broadcast. We also mastered the Premiere Edition of the DVD, which includes bonus material and is available for sale and delivery planned for the first week of December.

     We had a successful premiere on WGBY on November 29th and on WGBH on December 7th. DVDs are now ready and shipping for both retail and wholesale. We also released many clips on our Facebook page for your enjoyment.
