    I wonder if many people declined to talk to you on the phone? I bet it was really hard to track these people down?
  • JoshFlowers 3 years ago
    I was quite surprised that no one declined to talk to me. I did have people try to pass me off to another family member. One of these I still got a quote from which is why the second one about crochet purses sounds a bit rushed. I also had a lot of help from my mother tracking phone numbers down. Still though this took more work than about any short I've done so far.

    Amazing. I'd never be able to call anyone up and do this.
  • JoshFlowers 3 years ago
    Yeah, I wouldn't think I would be able to either but then I'm like who else will do it? Then I have to.

    Its a great idea, very well put together - told a great story in such a short space of time so many emotions and feelings in the clip. Good job.

    Josh, thanks for this amazing video! I was wondering if you sent the video to any of the family members
  • JoshFlowers 3 years ago
    Just a couple of them have seen it so far. I'm actually kind of nervous about showing it to them. Like they won't like how little I used of them talking about each person and they might be angry. So yeah basically I'm dropping the ball.
