Posted project update #5First Screening Secured
Pending full funding of this project, we have secured The Shadowbox Cinema in Roanoke, VA for our initial screening. Theater founder Jason Garnett's vision for microcinema fits the bill perfectly. From The Shadowbox Cinema website:
"My goal is to see Roanoke become a beacon for cinephiles everywhere. In my 13 years of experience in the theatre industry, I’ve met countless creative people in the region who share my passion for film. Whether they are making films themselves or just simply enjoy the art of cinema, I look forward to providing a venue for this audience to actively participate in screenings in a warm, casual environment. The Shadowbox is a microcinema dedicated to providing unique and innovative cinematic events that support the arts and cultural community of the Roanoke Valley.
The Shadowbox will not only show the truly original and independent but also host energetic and fun cinema events. My aim is to allow the audience to be more involved in the films they’re watching and expose them to additional works. The lounge setting of The Shadowbox will allow room for possible pre-screening discussions, live music or contests – each tailored to the evening’s piece. No matter what the film, I believe audience participation is the key to unifying an artistic community. The Shadowbox will be a home where local filmmakers can have their voices screened.
With The Shadowbox’s one of a kind film selections and events, it will enhance the cinematic experience and build upon Roanoke’s current love affair with the visual arts."
That $50 pledge is starting to sound good about now, eh? We hope to have some area coffee roasters and baristas on hand to demonstrate coffee preparation techniques and sample coffees encountered during the trip. Of course, that doesn't happen if we don't hit full funding. Thank you backers, and let's pull together to pull this off in the last week.

Posted project update #2CLOCKS A TICKIN!
Post CommentGREETINGS PROJECT SUPPORTERS!
The deadline is rolling up on us, still have a gulf to cross. A final push from you all to those you know and love would go a long way towards helping the project meet the funding goal, so send out those emails, make those calls, massage a few shoulders and let everyone know the incentives for the project have been expanded to include some really unique rewards for investors, including getting a unique, custom coffee blend named after you and distributed through award winning NOVA ROAST!!!! pretty sweet.
Imagine the next time your having coffee and someone asks you what you're drinking...
how will you answer?Rock on!
