…to a theater near you

by admin on February 8, 2010

Wahoo!

With a little over a week remaining until the deadline, we hit our crowdfunding goal for the “RunTellmanRun: Mile 0 – 654″ documentary. A huge thank you goes out to everyone who supported the project. By producing an honest yet entertaining piece, we’re hoping to reach audiences across the country and the world… audiences that may not understand the serious, often overlooked issue of youth homelessness. We have you guys to thank for helping us on this quest. To everyone who made a contribution, we’ll be getting in touch with you soon about your “backer rewards.”

And Mr. John Wallace, you sir are the man (John provided the final pledge that got us to the $6,000 mark).

Meanwhile, our video editor, Sara, is brimming with ideas about the documentary. With over 25 hours of footage from the road to sift through, she’s got plenty of content. Now she just has to pare it down and make the RTR crew look like sane, normal people.

Alas, 10 days remain until the deadline for crowdfunding. We hit our goal, but that doesn’t mean the fundraising has to stop. The more “backers” we have, the more time Sara will have to make the doc more professional and appealing. The more mass-appeal we have, the larger the audience we can reach. The larger the audience we can reach, the more people will understand youth homelessness. The more people…. you get the idea.

So please continue to tweet our Kickstarter page, or post it on your Facebook wall, or call up your grandma and say, “Yo, Grandma. Did you see this documentary project about a crazy dude running across America without shoes? We can be a part of it!”

Head on over to our Kickstarter page to pledge, read updates from Sara, or just to see what the project is all about.

SHABAMBO!
