    It's Really Happening!

    We just received confirmation on this "luck of the Irish kinda day" that we have the green light!
    We passed the "Content" & "Tech Check" so now we just got all of our tapes back and we are sending them off to the "Green Bay Packer" State of Wisconsin where they will work on close captioning all of the episodes!

    We have an air date too!
    Saturday May 8th (the day before Mother's Day!) at 9:00am
    All 14 episodes will play for 14 weeks which will end on August 7th!
    Woo Hoo!

    We were told to consider what the next episodes would contain and to think about scheduling for more shooting!

    Save the date of Saturday April 24th!
    This is the date for our Thank You Party for all of you wonderful "backers", watch your mailboxes next week for the invitations!

    Thank you all so very very much!

    Rewards are Coming

    To all our "Backers"-
    We are getting our DVD's mastered at this time, they should be ready for shipping within two weeks.
    If you have not submitted your address now is the time, you may send you mailing address to me at mfaulknor@aol.com. This will give us plenty of time to begin duplicating, packaging and shipping your reward. We will be notifying those who had the "reception" reward soon with date and time.
    Thank you for your patience, we are learning all about the fascinating technical world of PBS and finding things do not move as quickly as we had hope. Although they are moving in the right direction. You will be hearing from us soon!!!
    Thank you,
    Joyce Faulknor

    So what's next?

    As of yesterday KCSM has all of the Art2Art episodes!
    The program director gave us the thumbs up for the "content check" so we are now onto the next couple of hurdles.
    We are looking to have our DVD's remastered onto a specific tape format so we can send them on their merry way for Technical Review, and once that's passed we will submit for closed captioning and get our playback schedule. Closed Captioning and scheduling can happen at the same time!
    We're getting closer an closer to actual air-time!
    Whew, what a great education we've received working through this project!

    Thanks for all of your support

    Post Production of Art 2 Art

    Hello All-
    We have a little update on where we are as of today, the post production work takes time and we have a few more hurdles to jump before we see the finish line.
    Our editor is working on completing the 14 episodes of Art 2 Art, as he finishes them Guy and I will review the programs, once they have our stamp of approval on them, we then hand deliver to the Program Director of KCSM.
    Guy and I delivered the 5 of the 14 episodes to the program director of KCSM, last Monday. We now have received 3 more episodes, from our editor which we are in the process of reviewing before delivering to KCSM. This means only 6 more episodes to be delivered to us.
    We figured if we can deliver them as they are finished this would streamline, the
    Program Director's job, which is to review each episode for content. Once all the episodes are reviewed and approved they will then go to the Technical Department at KCSM.
    Once that is all approved we them will receive a time slot for Art 2 Art. Whew!!
    Yes, many hurdles but none to tall for us to manage, we feel great about the results we are seeing and I especially have to give a huge THANK YOU to Guy Magallanes, his explanation on watercolor techniques are like none other that I have seen on instructional TV. I know once you see the programs, you all will agree the tips he will be sharing are golden. I even picked up a few new techniques from the Master. And not to mention the entertainment on this program will keep even the non-watercolorist involved and wanting more.
    So that is my update for now, we are getting so close.
    I just want you all to know Guy and I so appreciate your belief in us and Art 2 Art, thank you all from the bottom of my heart!!
    Joyce
