FST 495 Update #7

There's good news and bad news (but the good definitely outweighs the bad). Unfortunately, we had to cancel our interview with Alysha on October 5 due to the threat produced by Hurricane Matthew. In good news, we've locked down a new subject, had a successful fundraiser at Fuzzy Peach, and are only $150 away from reaching our goal now! Our new subject is a male Wiccan named Danny, who is 21 years old. Our plan is to follow him for a couple of days and capture his rituals in action. Additionally, we want his story to add to the dynamic because we discovered that he was a Christian before he made the decision to become a Wiccan. We want to know what caused him to turn to this religion while we use Lady Passion and Tony Brown's interviews to add context around the Wiccan religion since they have both been Wiccan for over 20 years. We are excited to take on this new approach and believe that Danny will take certain people by surprise since he is a young, male Wiccan in Wilmington (which he has stated is not very populated with Wicca). As we continue our shoots, we are meeting with Tony Brown on Friday in Fort Mill, SC, and can't wait to see what he has to say!
