Okay, so I made this a moment ago because I was honestly bored. Pictured here is a map of every state in America color coded by their role in the final McDonald's documentary project. Orange states I have filmed in already (and might revisit some time), yellow states I am almost certain I will film McDonald's* locations in at some point, grey states I am leaving out, black states are non-continental.
This is an ambitious project I know, but it's gotten to the point that I don't want to get this baby out until it's truly captured everything I had in mind going in... And honestly, since you all support me on Patreon I want to make this project as ambitious as possible! I'm not out here spending $50k on Hazbin Hotel fan animations. I'm putting my money into videos!
I am really hoping in the coming months I can start to get some test edits going of what I have so far. I am really digging that under the current planning, every state I visit will touch by the end of this! I want this documentary to be about the American dream, Americana, and the impossible vastness of this country. I want foreign viewers to watch this and come to understand how undefinable America is. And that's why I want to go so ham on covering all these communities. :)
* When I say "film McDonald's" what I really mean is "film places which are either currently McDonald's or were once McDonald's." For instance, in Rhode Island we briefly filmed an abandoned McDonald's and in Missouri I plan to film a Mooseburger restaurant which was once a McDonald's.
