#IM FINE HELP ME TRIAL#
It just didn’t all come together without some major trial and error. The thing was – with 3 months or a year to plan – we could have had everything perfect, lined up, scheduled, and locked in. We eventually fell into a smooth pattern and captured amazing footage and stories. The first week or two of work was basically scrapped once we found the way we’d actually shoot the far majority of interviews! (gulp)īut once again – our flexibility paid off. How hasn’t the project changed while making it? )

And in that way, it’s always enjoyable.ģ) Has the project changed at all while making it? By that, I mean, did you change any course while producing it because of the stories you were hearing? Or will the movie end up closely resembling what you originally pictured? The work we’re putting in now will change thousands of lives. Overall, it’ll be a 6 months I think all of the crew will look back on and be extremely proud of. It’s been an insanely demanding process! Many parts of the movie are an absolute blast to work on – and others are too stressful to be enjoyable in the moment. Now, most of the crew (and our families) have moved out to San Francisco to finish the post production of the movie (for two months out here). We piled into a 15-passenger van with all our gear for the whole 6 weeks. The crew existed as a team of 5 – the producer (me), director, director of photography, camera operator, and sound technician. We then set off on a 6 week cross-country road trip where we interviewed over 60 people along the way. Production started in February of this year and we should premiere in early July! This means it’s been one heck of a production schedule! (That’s an understatement). We had about a week before we went on the road to prepare.
How long have you been working on it? How much have you guys committed to this project? And would you say it has been an enjoyable process for you? Most importantly, we want people to take small steps to realign their lives with the dreams and passions they’ve likely pushed to the back of their mind.Ģ) Give us a little sneak peek into the production process. It’s really that simple. We want people to look at their lives and identify if they are living their own dream or if some of their choices have been influenced by somebody else’s vision for their life. Every single person seems to struggle with it at some point!
And the more we spoke with people across the country, the more we realized how universal a problem this is. We made it because it’s an issue that’s impacted the very core of my life and my film-making partner, Grant Peelle’s (director) life. Well, the short version is I’m Fine, Thanks is a feature-length documentary on the issue of modern day complacency.īut to be a little more specific, it’s a collection of stories about the choices people make in life, what influences those choices, and how those choices lead us into specific life paths. It’s about the push to lead the traditional scripted “American Dream” and whether or not that dream is truly our dream or not (for each one of us). What’s it about? Why did you make it? And what are you hoping to accomplish with it? Here is what he had to say:ġ) Adam, introduce us to your film, I’m Fine, Thanks. To help spread the word, this past week, I had an opportunity to pull Adam aside and ask him to introduce the film a bit more. And enjoyed my opportunity last March to share with him my story of downsizing, minimizing, and realizing the endless pursuit of possessions is no way to enjoy life. He asked if I would be willing to sit down with him and his crew to film an interview for the project.

His dream was to highlight the stories of a number of people who had broken free from the typical pursuit of the American Dream. Last winter, Adam introduced me to his dream of creating a full-length documentary that would expose the foolishness of living life like everyone else. And in that way, his work makes all of us look better.
He doesn’t rest until he’s sunk every bit of his heart and soul into creating a product that brings value into the lives of others. And every time, he exceeded expectations.

Since crossing paths a few years back, I’ve watched him tackle a number of personal and professional projects. Adam Baker is one of those guys that make other bloggers look good.
