Posted project update #15Hey ALL
It's been a whirlwind of a summer for me, didn't want to leave you hanging with updates on the project, so here it goes in nice little list.
* Screened in Chicago, DC, Seattle, and Miami
* Won a film award for merit from the online Los Angeles Hollywood Film Festival
* Spoke at Gnomedex (on the fly, was invited to speak after my screening - 48hrs to prepare!)
* The film is right now getting color correction and some new graphics, maybe a new website.
* I've been contacted about selling the film, not sure what to do there.
* In the next two months LIPB will probably screen in the NYC area, LA, and at a couple huge tech
events. Still talking details w/tech events so I can't say which quite yet.
* LIPB as a series is probably happening, there are just too many really amazing people with interesting world views out there to close up shop at this point.
* LIPB has an IMDB page. It's not pretty, but it's there, which is remarkable in itself.
* I've started writing your thank you cards.
* A "directors cut" version of LIPB should be ready for download in the next two months.
* Limited edition DVDs of that "directors cut" will be sent out to Kickstarter backers in the next two months as well.That's all I got right now. I'd be running on empty if it weren't for all the enthusiasm of people like you keeping me going, this project is bigger that I ever imagined it would be.

Post CommentIf you are going to be in Chicago May 26th, I'd love to see you at the premiere of Life In Perpetual Beta during the Chicago Independent Film Festival! Life In Perpetual Beta is actually showing on the opening night of the festival at the Charlie Chaplin auditorium of St. Augustine College. The auditorium used to be the production stage for silent films back in the day, so I'm a little excited to show my film about where it all may be going in a place where essentially film began.
The film premieres at 6pm, and is free to attend. Hope to see you there!

I feel like, "First time caller long time listener" pretty much sums it all up for me. I'm a first time filmmaker who reinvented myself while creating a documentary about other people who have done the same: reinvented themselves as creat... view more
I was disappointed when the website with no events or posts looked like this might have fallen through. I am real glad this is still going full on. If you can turn this into a real series in the future, that is even better.
