I want to give everyone an update on what we have been doing since the teaser launch. The film is progressing well and we are arranging more interviews as we speak. We should have 3 more done in June. We will be doing reshoots with @theycallmedan due to some issues with the original footage. It was a shame since that interview went amazingly well but Im sure Dan will knock it out of the part once again.
That should get us to about 70-80% of all interviews completed.
A few days ago we completed the interview with Andrew Levine (@andrarchy). It was amazing listening to his thoughts on the general crypto space, his experience on creating a new blockchain (Koinos), his views on value of community and his feelings on the Steem/Hive split.
We got some amazing quotes from him and wer extremely happy to be adding him to the film.
We shot his interview outside as we wanted a bit of variety in shots as well.

UPCOMING INTERVIEWS:
When it comes to upcoming interviews, im happy to announce that the Bitcoin Foundation founder, Untold Stories podcast host, entrepreneur and investor, Charlie Shrem, has confirmed participation.
Listening to many of his podcast episodes and interviews he showcases his extreme knowledge of this space and his input will be massively valuable for this film.
Another person that has confirmed willingness to be interviewed but we still have a bit of arranging to do when it comes to dates and times is CrypoWendyO.
Wendy is the host of the "O Show", and is a crypto consultant for crypto companies globally. She has amassed a large following of crypto enthusiasts and is extremely good at explaining cryptocurrency in a easily understood manner to those yet to be "initiated". :)
I wanted to also share the team that will be creating art for the film that will then be animated. We are expecting there to be around 200 unique pieces created in a agreed upon style. The style I used as a "template idea" for us is a combination of work they have done in the past crossed with the look of Arcane (the RIOT animated series).
This will be a combination of digitally hand painted assets and graphical elements adjusted to the color scheme and general aesthetic of our choice.
This is a big part of the film I can say I'm most excited for as it will increase the artistic value of the film significantly and make it stand out due to uniqueness of the way we will present the story.
My co-producer and editor Aleksandar will have a guest appearance on a local podcast talking about his experiences working in this field. He will also cover a number of projects he is working on, which includes "Freechain". We should get the interview with English subtitles so everyone on Hive can take a look.
In the coming days PR about the film will be going out on cryptonews.com. We will be sending out PRs like this on a need to do basis. We will be reaching out to more publications, podcasters, etc. when the time comes to do so and we reach that production phase.
