frequently asked questions

Is “project pedal” the name of the documentary?
No, the working title for the documentary is “Pedal”, for proposes of this website and promotional materials it’s referred to as: Project Pedal.

How are you going to shoot it?
Mostly in high-definition with a special HDV35 kit [which, to give you a better idea, is a step up from a mini35 kit], we’ll also be packing 30-minutes of 16mm stock to carefully use at select moments.

The crew of four will have an extended-cab pick-up truck with a utility rack/ platform, a bicycle with a low-trailer attached, and an inflatable raft all at their fingertips. This should allow for a number of different [traveling] point-of-views.

What are we planning on doing with the final film?
Well, distribution for the documentary is going to branch off in two directions - as soon as the film is finished, we'll begin selling special DVDs on the website to the readers (including all kinds of bonus materials). But at the same time we will be putting it into every film festival we come across.

The ultimate goal is to have a good run in a few indie-friendly theaters - the plan, to be perfectly honest, is simply to take it as far is it can go, we really believe the film is going to be amazing and we're ready to do everything we can to make sure as many people as possible get a chance to see it.
