    Strutter a week away from completion!

    Hey there beloved backers!

    It's hard to believe that it's been a year since you all contributed to  this Kickstarter drive.  We're a week away from a completed feature film thanks to you.

    While I have been directing an episode of "Southland" for the past week and a half, Kurt Voss and our editor Aaron Rottinghaus have started the layoff process at Big Boss Creative and reports back are it's looking gorgeous and sounding amazing!  I'm done shooting my Southland ep on Monday and Kurt, Aaron, Chris Powell (our sound czar) and I will watch a screening Tuesday night of a first pass.  I am so excited!

    The last rewards which need to be delivered are the cast and crew private screenings.  So Martin, James and Leesa -- get ready for us!

    Thank you all, each and everyone, so very much for making Strutter happen!   I can't wait to show you the film!

    XOXOX

    More rewards a' comin' and Strutter's in the last week stretch!

    Hey there beloved backers!

    By now about half of you have received your rewards for your pledges and all the rest (Amoeba bag rewards, badges picks and postcards  as well as the special hand picked bags) will all be going out this coming week.   Thank you so much for your patience, and please please let me know if you HAVE received your rewards so I can scratch you off my list of ones I need to track. Some rewards donors are generously shipping the rewards themselves so I want to make sure they got to you. AND if you have not sent me your address yet for your reward -- please do asap!

    Meanwhile, as I have been directing an episode of "Southland" for the past week and a half, Kurt Voss and our editor Aaron Rottinghaus have started the layoff process at Big Boss Creative and reports back are it's looking gorgeous and sounding amazing!  I'm done shooting my Southland ep on Monday and Kurt, Aaron, Chris Powell (our sound czar) and I will watch a screening Tuesday night of a first pass.  I am so excited!

    Thank you all so very much!   I can't wait to show you the film!

    And don't forget to let me know when/ if you have received your rewards yet so I know who NOT to nudge!

    XOXOX

    Strutter Rewards update!

    Beloved Backers,

    Hope you continue to enjoy the holiday season!   

    The funds have dropped and we are ready to start rewarding your pledges. Some of your rewards are on their way to you, and others will be shipped in the coming weeks (some generous donors are away for the holidays and postcards for other rewards are being printed etc).   In some cases you may receive part of your reward in one shipment and part in another.  (For example Blood Is The New Black is generously shipping their T-shirts to pledgers directly, so we will be sending Strutter badges in a separate mailing.)

    If you have not responded with your address or other information please do so as soon as possible so we can get your stuff out to you!

    We could not have done a single bit of our movie without your pledges and support.  Thank each and every one of you so very much.

    And Happy New Year!!!

    XO

    Allison & Kurt & Strutter
