Documentary shot on Sony RX100MkII at DVinfo.net

This entire doc was shot on Sony's nifty pocket camera, for several reasons. One of which was that traveling in the Philippines is a challenge, and lots of camera gear makes it even more difficult. The other is to see just what this little camera is capable of. It also is very unobtrusive when filming in private homes. There was no extra lighting on any of the scenes in the house at night, just one overhead bulb, yet somehow it worked. Please let me know what you think:

I thought you did a very nice job, Jem, considering what you were working with and the challenges of the various locations where you were shooting. Special kudos for the topic. It takes a special person to recognize the urgency of the theme and to tell the story as well as you did.

Thanks Tim, sometimes you're just lucky enough to see what's right in front of you. I'm just grateful that Annie was willing to let me pry into her life like that, and willing to let it be shown. I've always thought that relationships are the most difficult, and rewarding, aspect of doing documentaries.
