One last time, let's do the thank you list!

Just to re-iterate, you've all made this possible.

During the campaign on the darker days, the crew went through several debates of backup plans in case we weren't able to make the full budget... but gratefully, we won't have to make any of those sacrifices now. Thanks to all of you.

We have locked our cast, our locations and our budget. The shoot begins next Thursday.

A few production updates:

-Crew is set for production dates
-Nearly all locations are locked
-Cast to be locked very soon
-Stunt coordinator locked
-Production Design is gathering costume and materials
-Revised Shot List in the works


To be perfectly honest though, our biggest hurdle right now is the budget. We don't have nearly enough to complete the film right now, and there's only so much we can do. We're depending on you to spread the word and let everyone know to donate to this project. We can't do it without you!

Up-and-Running!

Hey cowboys and cowgirls, the blogspot is officially up-and-running alongside our donation headquarters at IndieGoGo. Click the link to see more information about the film, the filmmakers and what bonus prizes you can get determining how much you can donate.

Even if you can only donate $5, that's going to add up to be a huge difference for the film. In addition to donating, or if you can't, please spread the word by sending your friends and family the link to our IndieGoGo or Pancha Facebook page.

It's not easy making movies, but with your help we can make this happen. Check back weekly for updates on pre-production and eventually production, as well as a special personal thank you list for each donation received. Thanks again!
