Making a documentary about stuttering Hello folks! Name is Bryan...I am a photographer and filmmaker ([https://www.brys-eyes.com/](https://www.brys-eyes.com/)) I also have a speech disorder since I was little and try to power through my daily life when talking to others. So I am glad there's a community of people with the same struggles I have (thanks internet). Anyways, I've been wanting to make **a indie documentary** with my best friend about **documenting the mindset of a stutterer and the stuttering world.** I also am interested in documenting this social movement called "Stuttering Pride", which is been a really fascinating research and something I don't think not many heard of. The point of making this documentary is .... * **for audience to sympathize people who struggle stuttering** * **how stuttering empowers us and makes us unique physically or mentally** * **and in depth mindset of a stutter.** Of course, I also don't want to **come off preachy or shove it in your face kind of message with theme** of this documentary. With that being said, we are currently looking for any candidates who like to **volunteer** to be interviewed in our documentary, whether in person or through virtual. We love to hear people's interesting stories and anything that has to do of the topics listed above. If you are interested...please let me know! DISCLAIMER: * COMPENSATION ISN'T INVOLVED * THIS IS A VOLUNTEER THING * YOU MAY MAKE AN APPERANCE IN OUR DOCUMENTARY FOR AUDIENCE TO SEE * YOU HAVE THE CREATIVE RIGHT TO TELL US WHAT TO EDIT, WHAT TO CUT AND SO ON ​ Any questions or concerns please let me know. Thanks for reading yall! :))
