@KeeperColl (Keeper Collection): Q. JasonBWise How did you become interested in doing @Somm_Doc abt @MasterSommWW Exam? #SommChat #WineWednesday #Winelover

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): @KeeperColl I wanted to make a film about wine for years, needed an angle. Saw a Master Sommelier blind taste and knew. #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): SOMM was a 50/50 between myself and one of the main characters in the film, we both made it possible @KeeperColl #SommChat

@demilove (Douglas Trapasso): @KeeperColl – Since I’m pursuing my Sommelier Dreams (Day Job thing looks pretty shaky right now), today we have perfect guest! – #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): @demilove Thank you! It is an incredibly worthwhile journey. We have met incredible people just making the film #SommChat

@winegalLynne (Lynne Bryant, CS): Q. JasonBWise @KeeperColl Did you know any Master Somms prior to filming SOMM? #SommChat #winewednesday

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): I did not, but we did about 8 months of preproduction on the film before rolling… @winegalLynne #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): It was a very hard world to get into as an outsider, but the most worthwhile experience of my life @winegalLynne #SommChat

@snipit (Snip.it): Looking forward to hear more about @Somm_Doc from JasonBWise #SommChat – @KeeperColl

@KeeperColl (Keeper Collection): Q. JasonBWise What inspired you to create a documentary (@Somm_Doc) abt @MasterSommWW #Master #Sommelier exam process? #SommChat #WineWednesday

JasonBWise(Jason Wise): @KeeperColl The thing that inspired us was the passion these people have. They are some of the most dedicated (obsessed)…. #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): … people I have ever met, it is crazy watching them do their thing in this movie. I’ve never seen anything like it @KeeperColl #SommChat

@drooln (Nathan Yap): JasonBWise @KeeperColl Thanks for coming to #SommChat to talk about SOMM! Will the documentary reach any theaters in Hawaii?

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): Hawaii looks very good my friend. After the premiere @napafilmfest, we will get it out as far as possible @drooln #SommChat

@drooln (Nathan Yap): JasonBWise That’s awesome! But I don’t mind traveling to see it either #SommChat

@winegalLynne (Lynne Bryant, CS): JasonBWise @KeeperColl Looks like u did a great job capturing the tension, did it hinder filming? Did u have 2 keep up spirits? #SommChat #WW

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): The thing that was the hardest was being honest while making the film – we became really good friends with…@winegalLynne #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): everyone we followed while making the film. I won’t say the tension made it easy though @winegalLynne #SommChat

@MauricesCru (maurice dimarino): JasonBWise Q. do you think this movie will give the Somm a bad rap as being egotistical or come out praising them. #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): Absolutely not, I don’t think there is a better ally in removing pretension from wine than this film…@MauricesCru #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): … These people could be your friends from high school or chemical engineers, all personalities @MauricesCru #SommChat

@MauricesCru (maurice dimarino): JasonBWise that is great to hear! have not seen it yet. #SommChat

@EquiferaIcewine (Equifera Icewine): This is our first #SommChat & we just want to observe today but thanks for hosting @KeeperColl & JasonBWise! #Cheers & Happy #WW everyone!

@amberdemure (amberdemure): JasonBWise @KeeperColl what would you say is the ratio of men to women reaching for master level? #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): from what I saw, the ratio is changing fast. Lots of women working up to the Master Level…@amberdemure #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): … We interviewed and worked with several women while filming -several are in the movie, they are just as intense @amberdemure #SommChat

@wolfeswines (Jeffrey Wolfe): JasonBWise #SommChat @KeeperColl Now that some of your candidates in the Movie have taken the exam recently is there additional footage to add?

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): There certainly might be I’ll just say there are reasons we held the film back from release @wolfeswines #SommChat

@demilove (Douglas Trapasso): @KeeperColl – Were you able to get any face time with the MS who actually write the exams? Do they feel any . . . #SommChat

@demilove (Douglas Trapasso): @KeeperColl – . . . guilt over torturing so many people, all in the name of professional growth? – #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): hahaha I have no idea who writes the exam, we were careful not to interfere with those types of things…@demilove #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): … I can guarantee the Masters in the film do not want people to feel pain, it is just a really hard test! @demilove #SommChat

@raelinn_wine (Raelinn_wine): haaaaaay #SommChat I’m here! Cheers! Looking forward to JasonBWise’s comments

@winegalLynne (Lynne Bryant, CS): Q JasonBWise @KeeperColl Did you come away w/ a vast amount of wine knowledge after filming? #SommChat #winewednesday

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): There is no way to explain how much I realized I don’t know about wine after making the #sommdoc , @winegalLynne #SommChat

@raelinn_wine (Raelinn_wine): @WineInkByTia Tiaaaaaaaaaaaa! Cheers lady! We so need to hang out when I get back! #SommChat

@KeeperColl (Keeper Collection): Q. JasonBWise After filming for 2 years, how many hrs of film footage did u have 2 cut 2 make the 1 hour 40 minute documentary? #SommChat #WW

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): 9 months ago I had an answer to that and it was thousands, now? No idea the special features will be amazing! @KeeperColl #SommChat

@wolfeswines (Jeffrey Wolfe): JasonBWise Test group ready for advanced early view and bubble up in Miami.. whenever you wish! #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): I cannot wait to show in Miami, LOVE that city @wolfeswines #SommChat

@raelinn_wine (Raelinn_wine): JasonBWise #SommChat Where can people see the film?

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): The premiere is November 7th @napafilmfest where it will be the opening doc film #verypumped more details soon @raelinn_wine #SommChat

@raelinn_wine (Raelinn_wine): JasonBWise GREAT! I should be able to make it! #SommChat

@MauricesCru (maurice dimarino): JasonBWise Q. is there one part of the exam that the somms struggled with the most? Or was it relative to the individual? #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): The easy answer is tasting, but this exam from my POV will find any weakness you have and exploit it…@MauricesCru #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): …remember though, I haven’t taken it, just sat in the trenches with those that have so I have a different perspective @MauricesCru #SommChat

@alaina (Alaina Percival): .@Somm_Doc chronicles one of the hardest exams in the world. Filmed in 6 countries over 2 years https://snip.it/s/53h6 JasonBWise #SommChat #ww

@winegalLynne (Lynne Bryant, CS): Q. JasonBWise @KeeperColl Do you have a favorite part of the film? #SommChat #winewednesday

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): There’s some visual things I’m very proud of, but there’s a tasting that is very tense, and dramatic that may be my fav @winegalLynne #SommChat

@winegalLynne (Lynne Bryant, CS): JasonBWise @KeeperColl I hear you! Even after passing the CS test, my realization is how much there is still to learn! =) #SommChat #ww

@RetaKay13 (Reta Coker Crowe): @demilove @KeeperColl Where does one go for training and testing to become a sommelier? #SommChat #winewednesday

@demilove (Douglas Trapasso): @RetaKay13 – Don’t want to answer for our #SommChat guest, but the Court’s attitude is you need to learn on your own and w/others.

@fernandobeteta (Fernando Beteta, MS): .JasonBWise Did you consider filming in the UK and follow MS candidates there? #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): Absolutely, it was something we planned, but it made it too hard to connect the story to our guys in the US @fernandobeteta #SommChat

@demilove (Douglas Trapasso): JasonBWise – Maybe that’s a topic for a sequel!! Remember, CourtMS Will NEVER Tell You What The Wines Were! (#WSET does) – #SommChat

@WineInkByTia (Tia Butts): JasonBWise Many in the wine industry will undoubtedly want to see this film, but why should anyone else see it? What is relatable?#SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): There is nothing like this movie, in a test screening, the audience forgot it was about wine by the middle…@WineInkByTia #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): …passion is contagious and anyone who wants to climb a mountain of any form will want to see this @WineInkByTia #SommChat

@winegalLynne (Lynne Bryant, CS): Q. JasonBWise @KeeperColl Do you think you’ll explore the food world next documentary? #SommChat #winewednesday

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): All I can say is that my next docu has to do with the oyster industry, but it isn’t what you may think @winegalLynne #SommChat

@italianwineguy (Alfonso Cevola): @WineInkByTia great question! #SommChat

@BistroSanMartin (Bistro San Martin): SOMM @Somm_doc movie trailers have our ?’s pounding! Check out JasonBWise on #SommChat now! cc: @KeeperColl

@ENOontheMagMile (Scott Harney): JasonBWise @KeeperColl Is there another profession or test you would compare after making this film? #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): honestly? I look at it more as someone with a crazy goal than a profession. Like wanting to dive the deepest…@ENOontheMagMile #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): …or wanting to climb the highest, most people in this had to do it, it wasn’t a job to them – it was a must @ENOontheMagMile #SommChat

@RetaKay13 (Reta Coker Crowe): @demilove oops…. What about testing? #SommChat

@EquiferaIcewine (Equifera Icewine): JasonBWise @WineInkByTia That’s great – increase the audience to outside of the #winecommunity to educate others as well. #SommChat #WW

@fernandobeteta (Fernando Beteta, MS): .JasonBWise The video & editing quality is outstanding. u really capture the moments & wine regions. Do u also film 4 @guildsomm #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): Thank you! We have done a bit @fernandobeteta #SommChat

@KeeperColl (Keeper Collection): Q. JasonBWise What was it like filming the very personal, vulnerable moments of the #Sommeliers for @Somm_Doc? #SommChat #WineWednesday

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): It was easier than we thought it would be because we had become close to the subjects, we tried… @KeeperColl #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): …not to interfere with the process and really hope we didn’t. It was an honor to b able to b there for those moments@KeeperColl #SommChat

@CaravelleChamp (Rita Jammet): JasonBWise VERY important question: When can we see the film in New York? @KeeperColl @dwilson79 #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): We are working on this as I type, promise. NYC is soooo important @CaravelleChamp #SommChat

@CaravelleChamp (Rita Jammet): U bet! reach out if U need help! RT JasonBWise: We are working on this as I type, promise. NYC is soooo important @CaravelleChamp #SommChat

@fernandobeteta (Fernando Beteta, MS): .JasonBWise Oscar in Somm Documentaries? #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): hahaha I just want people to see the film and if we are lucky get to make another one. We hope this is your rocky @fernandobeteta #SommChat

@AdamPlotkin (Adam Plotkin): Hello #SommChat tweeps! Better late than never!

@AdamPlotkin (Adam Plotkin): @raelinn_wine JasonBWise Nappa Valley FIlm Fest is the premier! #NVFF #SommChat

@MauricesCru (maurice dimarino): @CraigDonofrio JasonBWise crazy to hear that Sur Lucero passed it the first time! #SommChat

@winegalLynne (Lynne Bryant, CS): Q. JasonBWise @KeeperColl Any documentary directors/producers you admire? #SommChat #winewednesday

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): absolutely! Errol Morris, Werner Herzog, Les Blanc, way too many too name @winegalLynne #SommChat

@AdamPlotkin (Adam Plotkin): @winegalLynne JasonBWise @KeeperColl Bet there are lots of spirits (wink wink) around for keeping spirits high! #SommChat

@WineInkByTia (Tia Butts): @jpwpro Somms are not always the most beloved people in wine, at least by diners. Will make them more approachable? #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): I think the answer to this is absolutely, I can’t speak for others, but the SOMMs I worked with were…@WineInkByTia #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): …gracious and smart. There are people like that in every profession, but this film shows the good 1′s I guess @WineInkByTia #SommChat

@snipit (Snip.it): JasonBWise @ENOontheMagMile Will it be available on Amazon at some point? #SommChat @somm_doc #winewednesday #ww

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): It definitely will, but after the premiere and a few select screenings @snipit #SommChat

@demilove (Douglas Trapasso): @KeeperColl JasonBWise @winegalLynne – White wine and oysters . . . mmm . . . – #SommChat

@StephanieMiskew (Stephanie Miskew CSW): @KeeperColl Happy to be at #SommChat on this fabulous #WW! #betterlatethannever

@ENOontheMagMile (Scott Harney): JasonBWise @KeeperColl They say it takes a lot of beer to make good wine. I assume beer helps make a movie about wine people? #SommChat

@demilove (Douglas Trapasso): @KeeperColl – I get the sense that for these MS candidates, this is like their Olympics (been thinking a lot about that lately) – #SommChat

@WineInkByTia (Tia Butts): @CaravelleChamp It’s changing, but many wine consumers would still consider sommeliers pretentious or intimidating. @jpwpro #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): I would say that it doesn’t have to cost much to find great stuff, you just have to do your homework…@WineInkByTia #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): …I cannot believe how much I neglected Riesling before making SOMM @WineInkByTia #SommChat

@winegalLynne (Lynne Bryant, CS): @demilove @KeeperColl JasonBWise Or Champagne & oysters! =) #SommChat #winewednesday

@noblewines (Christopher Miller): @mauricescru #SommChat I wanted to continue to take Advanced Somm course once I passed for more learning experience Fred said no…

@CharlesComm (Charles Comm PR): Good morning, all! @KeeperColl thanks for the invitation #SommChat

@winegalLynne (Lynne Bryant, CS): Q. JasonBWise @KeeperColl Did u get chances to try some special wines during filming, maybe hard 2 find wines? #SommChat #winewednesday

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): I drank things I feel guilty for, we filmed all over Europe and got to drink things we def didn’t deserve @winegalLynne #SommChat

@scottota (Scott Ota): JasonBWise, @KeeperColl Wish I could be at #SommChat today, but it’s inventory day. Really looking forward to seeing SOMM in Austin!

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): Thank you Scott, I will buy you a beer when it shows there good luck with inventory @scottota #SommChat

@CraigDonofrio (Craig Donofrio): JasonBWise #SommChat Q. What kind of cameras did you mostly shoot with?

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): We filmed with several high end HD cameras as well as a Phantom High speed camera when we blew up wine bottles! @CraigDonofrio #SommChat

@StephanieMiskew (Stephanie Miskew CSW): @CaravelleChamp @SOMM_DOC @raelinn_wine Woo-hoo – I am in!!! #SommChat

@kerrynewberry (Kerry Newberry): @KeeperColl Peeked at #SommChat can’t stay but will keep an eye out for premiere of Somm JasonBWise in Portland. Also, oyster doc sounds fab!

@BistroSanMartin (Bistro San Martin): Hopefully, the next JasonBWise documentary on oysters includes a visit to Seattle & @taylorshellfish farms! #SommChat

@WineInkByTia (Tia Butts): JasonBWise What was the most useful thing or biggest takeaway on #wine you learned while filming? #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): I cannot believe how much I neglected Riesling before making SOMM @WineInkByTia #SommChat

@winegalLynne (Lynne Bryant, CS): .JasonBWise @KeeperColl Thanks so very much for being here! I can’t wait for the premiere of SOMM in Napa! Take care all and happy #WW #SommChat

@AdamPlotkin (Adam Plotkin): JasonBWise @KeeperColl Was there any one particular moment of filiming that stands out in your mind? #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): We got to film a bottle of Johannesburg Riesling from the early 1700′s in the Rhiegau… that stands out @AdamPlotkin #SommChat

@italianwineguy (Alfonso Cevola): @KeeperColl signing off – gotta run to a meeting – thanks for all the work you do for #SommChat

@AdamPlotkin (Adam Plotkin): .JasonBWise @WineInkByTia Always amazes me how many people ignore Riesling. One of most versatile grapes on the planet! #SommChat

@AdamPlotkin (Adam Plotkin): .JasonBWise WOW! Bet that did stand out! I assume it was not opened and consumed, or was it??? #SommChat

@StephanieMiskew (Stephanie Miskew CSW): @italianwineguy @KeeperColl Alfonso, I loved your seminar @SWEConference last week! Thank you:) #SommChat

@ccollinsms (Craig Collins, MS): @KeeperColl JasonBWise couldn’t make today but love reading through the thread. Super excited about SOMM! #SommChat

@noblewines (Christopher Miller): any others you are not neglecting now? RT JasonBWise: I cannot believe how much I neglected Riesling before making SOMM @WineInkByTia #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): Rhone wines… for sure. Also, Sicilian wine has blown me away @noblewines #SommChat

@MauricesCru (maurice dimarino): @noblewines that seems like self torture…:) #SommChat

@WineInkByTia (Tia Butts): JasonBWise Though it’s a passion, wine is also a business. Does the film examine the selling of wine as well? #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): It is mainly focused on having to learn everything, but it does to some extent…@WineInkByTia #SommChat

@Sassodoro (Sassodoro): .JasonBWise Can’t wait for @Somm_doc to make it to Chicago! #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): Thank you! It will def come there! @Sassodoro #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): Germany by far. It was the only country I had not filmed in prior and the wine regions and the people were fantastic @KeeperColl #SommChat

@KeeperColl (Keeper Collection): Q. JasonBWise How did you become interested in #wine? #SommChat #WineWednesday

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): I bartended my way through film school at a nice restaurant, and can’t remember a time I didn’t drink it… @KeeperColl #SommChat

JasonBWise (Jason Wise): …also a big military history buff and wine regions seem to fall right into that passion love maps too! @KeeperColl #SommChat
