"You can't go around assuming the worst in people." - Jaime Sommers
The thing that attracted me to the retconned version of the 70s classic televison show was the fact that is was, well, a retcon!
The unique thing about the updated, but short-lived series from 2007, was the fact that it played upon so many new-age issues from terrorism, to corruption, to things like the questioning of our own government's morality. In all, I actually liked the show quite a bit.
While, not only was there something really cool about the show, as a whole, but the way in which I approached this series was like none other before it: Instead of creating an individual character-study for each character of the show, I chose to focus on the story's protagonist, Jaime Sommers, while weaving other characters into her journey.
Even more unusual, was the fact that I approached the montages as a three-part origin story for the character, hence the sub-title that I chose: "The Education of Jaime Sommers".
On another note, behind-the-scenes, this montage series was the second in which I created over 90% of the series' photos using screencap software which expired right after I finished capturing all of the desired shots that I wanted (a greuling process that takes up to thirteen hours at minimum). Overall, though, I think this series came out much better than I'd originally expected it to....
