Hi Forrest!

I am glad you have been thinking about such things. I’ve been thinking about it too, and while I don’t think a “making of” would be too interesting, since I really haven’t had the time to document my own journey, your suggestion about using out-takes which didn’t make it into the film is something I have been thinking a lot about. I think I could probably make a whole podcast with several episodes if I wanted to with the interviews I’ve gathered. Probably, though, what I will do is one of two things: Make some “DVD Extras” (minus the DVD part) which I will include for backers and contributors to the film, or make an “extended cut” where I keep a longer version of the film with a lot of the extra material left in. It will depend a bit on time since I am going to be editing right down to the night of February 26th for sure, the day before the film is scheduled to be released for backers. Finally, I am thinking of long-term donating some of the raw interview material (with the permission of the interviewees) to a source like the Computer History Museum or even UNNA (although I think the bandwidth and file size might be an issue). That donation wouldn’t be for a few years, however, once the film has run its course.

These are just ideas at this point, we will have to see where it goes but I’m open to trying it.
