“It takes a lot of time to get<br />

things right and having to redo<br />

scenes was trying, but I believe<br />

that practice makes perfect<br />

and I just kept reminding<br />

myself that I was being asked<br />

to redo things because they<br />

wanted to get the best possible<br />

shots for the final cut.”<br />

a time, the video was shot in bits and<br />

pieces that were later edited and rearranged<br />

to make the final cut.<br />

“Editing the video took days,” said<br />

Clark. “We had almost 12 hours of<br />

footage that we had to condense and<br />

rearrange.”<br />

Each scene had to be shot multiple<br />

times and from different angles to ensure<br />

there was enough footage to pick<br />

from and that it matched exactly what<br />

was being said in the voiceover.<br />

because they wanted to get the best possible<br />

shots for the final cut,” Kruse said.<br />

The final piece was released in September<br />

and was posted across multiple<br />

social media platforms, on YouTube, and<br />

through the Sunglo Feed Companies media<br />

channels. Sunglo sponsored the video<br />

and supplied Kruse with feed for his pigs<br />

and apparel to wear during filming.<br />

“Working with both Sunglo and the<br />

CAC Media Group was a very positive<br />

experience,” Kruse said. “I learned so<br />

much about speaking and working with<br />

people in a professional environment<br />

and I know that both of those skills will<br />

help me in the future.”<br />

The finished product, which is titled<br />

“A Showman’s Story,” will be available<br />

for viewing later. CAC will share the<br />

details on how people can watch the<br />

program when they become available.<br />
