David Schendel and his 5 crew members shot film between October 31 and November 3 for our documentary Profiles in Courage and Compassion. Filming took place at four locations: the JACL Hall, the Buddhist Temple, Ricketts Lab on Cannery Row, and the Tor House in Carmel. On November 4, Schendel’s crew traveled to film an interview at Ed Ricketts, Jr.’s Mill Valley home. With one more important interview remaining with descendants of a cannery worker in the 1940s, we will have completed fifteen interviews. Schendel will then be ready with film in the can to move on to the editing phase. So we are getting closer to our timetable targets: first cut in May of 2017 and premiere showing in September.
