174. What It Really Took to Film the Desert Classic Docuseries with Carly Gilleland

In today’s episode, we’re sitting down with Carly Gilleland, the creative force behind The Good Vibe Studios, to talk all about what went into creating The Making of the Desert Classic, our 6-part behind-the-scenes documentary following Arizona’s biggest women’s golf tournament.

We talk about the chaos, creativity, and real-time problem solving that comes with filming something this big, including making split-second decisions that impact hundreds of people and capturing the moments you can’t plan for. Carly also shares what it took to turn hours of raw footage into a story that actually feels authentic to the event and the women behind it.

From pre-production planning to hot mic moments and everything in between, this episode gives a real look at the energy, teamwork, and good vibes that brought the entire series to life.
