A Wonderful Day of Filming in Le Champ des Possibles

8/17/2013

Yesterday I had the pleasure of spending almost the whole day filming in Le champ des possbles, the wild field that the citizens of the Mile End fought to preserve as a park. It was the annual bio blitz, an event for which Les amis du champ invite the community to come and help them create a bio inventory of the field. There were lots of activities from making an inventory of the insects in the field, to counting all the plant species. The Sierra Club led a small group of people through the near by back alleys investigating the plants that lived in these spaces. It was quite a fertile ground for collecting material for Green Dream and I walked out happy with excellent moments captured on camera. This was the last official filming day for me. Now with the 1st rough cut done and this footage to add, I am moving towards the fine cut of the film.
Thanks to Chris Leon for the photos, which captured the spirit of this beautiful Sunday afternoon.

Thanks to Les amis du champ and all participants. This was an amazing day, with some great material to wrap up the film.
