Super Bowl LII Recap

by Ray Roman in , , , , , , ,


I've recently returned from a trip to the Super Bowl in Minneapolis, MN. It was freezing! I've experienced the cold before but never below zero. Luckily, I came prepared and survived the weather. There were various events, and interviews I captured throughout the week. One of the events covered was the Brain Health Summit, you can watch their live stream of the event here. Another memorable moment was getting a follow up interview with Brett Favre for the documentary I'm currently in post-production on.

On this trip I traveled to Minnesota and North Dakota making that a total of 30 states I've traveled to. Besides the cold, I did not know what to expect on this trip and reflecting back on my 5 days in the Bold North I have to say I enjoyed it!

The food was delicious from the burgers, to the pasta, pizza, and so on. Read some of my recent yelp reviews here.

We're still wrapping up interviews and transitioning into post-production. For those who don't know -- a lot goes into the editing process before you actually begin the creative aspect. For example a quick breakdown includes: importing media, transcoding video files, syncing the audio and video together, playing back and logging notes on each interview (50+). I'll keep you posted but for now here's a couple photos from the last few interviews!
