Thank you, I have a lot of great material so far. However I've still been unable to get an interview with someone who stacks copper pennies which I feel is crucial to the film. I have had a few people reach out to me but then bailed when it came down to actually giving an interview. Still hoping someone out there has some pride in what they do and would be willing to talk. Either way thanks for the support.

I would think the Portland Mint would supply a spokesman hint hint.

Most people don't seem to want to be interviewed and be on TV and such. I am quite surprised but the people who I have talked to aren't interested. It also doesn't help that quite a few people have stopped sorting because of the low copper price.

I thought the Portland Mint had previously done interviews.

They have. We got some good material with them last year but were also limited in what we could film due to insurance reasons. Regardless I would like to interview someone who has a private stack that has been been adding to it for quite some time. Unfortunately so far the people who have contacted me and want to help with filming either recently started or sold off most of what they had. The search continues..
