More Support from 4Culture!

Last month we were proud to announce that 4Culture had sponsored our film and would be funding our efforts to get historical photos for the film (it's more expensive and involved than anyone would hazard to guess.) That was just one component of finishing our film, however: we still needed funds to get sound, music, animation, editing, and color correction for the film (we haven't even touched finding funding for outreach yet. Ask me about that later this fall!)

This last week, 4Culture gave us a big boost to finishing the artistic side of post-production. Through their generous support and this award, we're able to get started on the film again. You have no idea what a vote of confidence this has been. Not only do we now know that we can start the work of finishing this film, but it's just been a weight off of our hearts to have someone come along and support us like this. It's the first time in the last two years that we've seen a light at the end of the tunnel.
