As you may know, this year my friends and I had the honor of making a Fly Film for the the Seattle International Film Festival. Our film was completed in April, screened twice during the festival then once at Rawstock. In case you missed those, it’ll play again at Bumbershoot Sunday the 6th of September at 1PM.
Thereafter, we hope to send it off into the ‘real’ world where it will play a number of film festivals beyond Seattle. That’s the hope anyway.
In the meantime, Jonathan Houser and I are hosting a special fundraising screening of the film in hopes of raising some completion funds. This means we’re hoping to cover the costs of duplicating, printing and manufacturing the DVD as well as covering some of the costs of sending it out to many other festivals where the entrance fees can add up quickly. For example, I spent over $1000 submitting my second film “A Night in the Sunlight” to film festivals all over the world.
This soiree is a no-pressure opportunity to see the film, socialize and party with the cast and crew… and maybe drop a few coins to the cause.
We’ll have beer, wine, hors d’oeuvres and lots of good company. Please join us.
Saturday August 22, 8PM until whenever at Jon’s loft in Pioneer Square.
PS. Even if you’ve already seen the film, this screening will have all new surprises!
