CROWDFUNDING UPDATE
A HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who has joined our campaign and given us the strong start of $5,000! We have been already putting the funds to good use by commissioning more amazing work from our graphic designer, Joe Presser. Below is a video sample of his newest creations, set to the dialogue of the film.
Please help us continue to finish the film and prepare for its premiere this Fall. We are preparing to submit to film festivals starting July 1st so NOW IS THE TIME to help us reach our goal and give us the energy we need to finish the film. More info on where the funds will go in our video. In addition to contributing to the campaign, please also share it with your friends and colleagues asking for them to join us on this journey to end the toxic practice of fracking in Colorado and the world. Join us today! https://bit.ly/fts-
SNEAK PEEK VIDEO
And now, here it is, our newest draft of some graphics we are adding to the film THANKS TO THE CROWDFUNDING EFFORTS SO FAR. (These clips are from different scenes in the film so the sound will be disjointed and the transition will be abrupt in the compilation)
