Getting the opportunity to interview Doug Smith, a true musical genius, was a treat for me to figure out where his creativity comes from.  Tying his story into a live show was a first for the Craig Hospital PUSH dinner videos&#8230; something they have now copied three times since this 2011 showing.  <\/p>\n<p>If you could have only been there to feel this transition take place&#8230; to see my work presented on such a large scale to tell the story of Doug Smith and then have him revealed and play such a powerful song live \u2014 It was such an amazing feeling.<\/p>\n<p>I shot, edited and directed this piece with a small team of Jake Manley, Mary Bonner and myself.  We all had a fun working road trip to Lubbock, Texas were everyone on the team learned a lot about each other, the local watering holes, and the man Doug Smith!<\/p>\n<p>After the 6:40 mark in the video&#8230; I had zero control of shooting and editing.  I feel as if the impact could have been a bit better matched to my original work &#8211; but you still get the impression of how impacted the audience was.
