Yo! Did You Know?! is a travelogue web series that follows, me, Jen Farris, a seasoned Film and TV location scout, into film-friendly communities to reveal history ‘hidden in plain sight’, the artistry of architecture and oftentimes the change makers who made those communities special.
Let’s virtually explore together!
Hi! I’m Jen, a Georgia Peach from Atlanta USA. For thirty years, I have worked in the entrainment industry, and in that time, for more than a decade, I have worked as a professional film and television location scout. I love exploration and have seen the coolest perspectives of locations from an eagle’s eye-view to under the ground. I’m excited to finally tell the stories of many places I have traveled. Hailing from a lineage of storytellers, writers and historians, it is no surprise that I believe storytelling to be something held in high regard. Building the foundation of stories through location scouting has been invigorating.
I fell in love with architecture as a teenager, and was so good, my drafting teacher carved my name out of wood as a desk name plate for my future job at an architectural firm. Who knew that after all these years in entertainment, I would find myself back inside of a world of architecture.
