After a number of COVID delays, the filming for Pep Banned has officially begun! In June, Director Chris Farina and Executive Producer Ron Culberson traveled to New York City to conduct on-camera interviews with founding member, Steve Mershon and 1984 drum major, K.C Underwood. The interviews were insightful, funny, and will be a valuable contribution to the wonderful story of the UVA Pep Band. In August and September of this year, there are plans to conduct several more interviews in Charlottesville. Once this initial filming is complete, we hope to produce a trailer which will help to advertise the project and generate additional financial support (hint, hint).
