Hopi

Boom

Much like my trip to the Nez Perce reservation in Idaho, Black Dollar Productions was hired by the Autry National Center to handle audio on a film shoot in Second Mesa on the Hopi reservation in Arizona.

The majority of our filming took place in a corn field where the Hopi have dry farmed corn for hundreds of years.  We filmed an elder telling his niece about the Kachinas and how they watch over the Hopi people.

Hopi is beautiful place, somewhere everyone should visit and learn about

The Autry National Center hired Black Dollar Productions to handle audio for a film shoot on the Nez Perce reservation in Idaho.

We flew to Portland then Spokane then drove to Lapwai, ID to spend five days filming a pow wow, the land, and personal interviews.

It was a unique and wonderful opportunity to learn about Nez Perce history and culture. Vegetarian is actually an Indian word – it means lousy hunter.
