Documentary series - Alaska Militia

[Norm Olson]

To all:

A fresh and honest approach to why Alaskans keep and bear arms -- and
it's not always about the 2nd Amendment. This may be a project you
and your family might want to participate in.

In the early days of our land, the firearm WAS a tool no less
important than an ax or shovel or a coil of good rope. Alaskans keep
alive the purpose for keeping and using firearms that is different
than most gun owners in the lower 48. This project will focus on the
firearm as a necessary implement for not only self defense, but
defense of the entire family as well as the means to keep the freezer
full. I know that many of you take the time to teach your children to
use and respect the firearm as a useful tool. I've seen many smiling
faces of youngsters who pose for a picture with their first caribou.

If you'd like to take part in showing the world that firearms are an
important and positive part of living in Alaska, please contact the
project point of contact.

Norm

Hi Norm,


It was great speaking with you. Thank you so much for your help. I
really appreciate it. I believe with the help of your group members we
have the opportunity to make a powerful, positive documentary series.

Here is a write-up you can share on the forum. Let me know if there's
anything you want me to add.

Hello everyone! My name is Ally Siegel and I work at BBC Worldwide
Productions in Los Angeles. I spoke with Norm Olson and reassured him
this project will be done in a positive, historical way. This is a
chance to tell YOUR story in YOUR words.

BBC Worldwide Productions s is looking to make a documentary series
about families with kids who advocate for the Second Amendment.

This documentary series aims to start a conversation about the deeply
valued right to bear arms, and will show families who teach their
children to respect and use guns as a tool.

I know many people are skeptical to talk with the "media" but you have
a unique opportunity to share your story and I think your voice should
be heard. I want to be your platform to tell your story in a
historical and positive way.

Our approach is different from any other media organizations. We are
not looking to exploit anyone or show someone in a negative or
unfavorable way. We want to showcase the amazing families and kids who
see the importance of learning the necessary skills to prepare for
everything and anything.

Please let me know if you're interested so we can talk by phone and I
can better explain our project. I am more than happy to answer any
questions you have. I want you to feel comfortable talking with me.

I believe with the help of your group members we have the opportunity
to make a powerful, positive documentary series. We want to give an
accurate portrayal of your group but need your help to do so.

You can reach me at ally....@bbcaproduction.com or 323-785-8658.

Please note I am only in the office until December 19th and will be
out of town then until January 4th. If you're interested I'd like to
talk before then.

Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you.

Ally Siegel
