Travel Schedule and Signup for Documentary Filming

UPDATE 2020-3-2: We’re returning to the US with our next stop being Low Carb Denver.

If you’re attending Low Carb Denver and are interested in interviewing, please see signup information below, and please read carefully.

Throughout 2020, we’re traveling around the world and throughout the United States filming a series of interviews on the science of lipids and cholesterol along with the emerging research on its relation to low carb diets and metabolism (which is my central focus here at CC).

We actually have a sophisticated setup with several cameras, lights, mics, and tripods. We hope to gather quite a lot of footage over these eight weeks.

Who We’re Interviewing and How to Join

First and foremost, please confirm you will be at Low Carb Denver (see schedule below). Please also be aware that we expect a lot of inquiries and will likely be unable to interview the majority of those applying. With that said, we hope to capture many interesting stories and opinions from medical and non-medical professionals alike.

We’re looking to interview three main groups of people.

1. Lipidologists, Cardiologists, and researchers in the field of lipids and/or cardiovascular disease. It’s important to get perspectives from every side represented in the documentary. So whether you are pro-lipid hypothesis, a skeptic, or somewhere in between, we’d love to have you on.

2. Low carb “Hyper-responders” and “Lean Mass Hyper-responders” – those who have had a pronounced increase in their total and LDL cholesterol since adopting the diet. We’re interested in a variety of stories and opinions on what these means to the individual.

3. Doctors who have low carb patients and how they are treating the rising number of cases for hyper-responders.

We will be in Denver at the conference and scheduling interviews between the times of 9am and 6pm, Mar 12th (Thursday) to Mar 15th (Sunday). Please let us know in the signup if you are available throughout these times and if now, when you are/are not.

What the Documentary is and When it Will Be Released

While we know the subject matter of what we’re filming, the exact nature of its final format when it will be released is yet to be determined. We’re seeking to capture many, many hours of interviews that help tell the story of how we got this this point of understanding with cholesterol and risk, how hyper-responders from the low carb movement have opened new questions, and what the next steps are for the science in this field.

This may be a feature length documentary, or it may be a series of shorter segments tackling each topic in succession. Regardless, it won’t change our efforts to capture as much footage as we can for experts, doctors of low carb patients, and hyper-responders from around the world. This is a story that certainly needs to be explored.

Update to the Film Project will be Posted Here
