Earlier this year, the Missing Richard Simmons podcast made waves amongst listeners. Diane Hodson, who teaches Fundamentals of Filmmaking I, worked on that podcast as part of Pineapple Street Media's production team.
She will be working on Pineapple Street's latest project, Heaven's Gate, which examines the rise of the notorious titular cult. From their website:
"Coming Soon: Explore the tragic story of Heaven's Gate, the largest mass-suicide on American soil. Join Glynn Washington for an in-depth look at the lives of the Heaven's Gate founders and members, and find out how its promise turned to such tragedy."
Heaven's Gate launches this fall.
