For more than a decade, director Scott A. Magie dreamed of capturing the legacy of Dr. Jones on film. And when the Piney Woods School prepared a centennial celebration in 2009, the wait was over.

One quiet May morning in the piney woods of Mississippi, the cast and crew descended upon the campus of the Piney Woods School with trailers of cameras, lights, green-screens, dollies, costumes, and boom-mics. Years of research and months of preparation were about to culminate in one very long -- but amazing -- week of film production.

The finished project is a result of the enthusiasm, dedication, and talents of:

• The Piney Woods School
• The Flipbook Moving Picture Company
• Distant Lands Entertainment
• The Lighthouse Film Company, Inc.

With special thanks to the Jessie Ball duPont Fund.
