On this brand new episode of the Planet Shivers podcast, I am joined by Allegra Deneroff; Producer and Costume Designer for the upcoming short film, ‘The Fabulous Flocks’. Along with her husband, Jeff Kaminski, who wrote and also is directing the film, Allegra is helping to keep NASCAR’s first family of speed alive!
Bob, Tim, Fonty, and Ethel Flock were among the pioneers behind the wheel of what is now a major motor sport. From the local dirt tracks of Georgia, to the sands of Daytona Beach, the Flocks lead NASCAR history through the 1950s, contributing both locally and nationally.
Allegra comes on the podcast to cover all that, as well as the process of creating The Fabulous Flocks with casting, costumes, and endless learning and research.
Beyond the racing, this film shares so much rich American history, and you don’t have to enjoy racing to listen to this podcast or follow this film. However, I bet you’ll have more appreciation for these cars and drivers once you’re through!
When I found this film’s social media pages (link in comments) I was excited for this project. After having this conversation with Allegra, I am all the more excited.
Racing, history, and the arts…That’s all I need!
