Update #3: Exciting News!
Dear Friends,
I know you’ve been waiting anxiously a while for
your
Upstate incentives. We want to thank you so much for
your patience and understanding and apologize for the delay.
We assure you it’s taken time to send everything out for good
reason. It's been a bumpy road these past few months
and we’ve been working endlessly to promote and ready the film. "Ready the
film for what?" You might ask. Well, we’re happy to let
you know
that all the hard work and your help has paid off resulting in great
news. Upstate has been picked up by IFC Films
and Sundance International for limited international distribution!
It was no easy task and we couldn't have
done it without you.
The deal is no cash cow by any means, but for such a small film to find a home with an established company is a very rare thing in today’s market. We’re proud of the achievement and grateful to all of you for making it happen. Hopefully this means in the near future you’ll be able to find Upstate online or on television (depending where you are.) We’ll keep you updated via our mailing list.
Please bear with us. We haven't forgotten
you and
will never forget you! There's just a few more odds and ends that we
need to tie up with IFC before we send out your incentives. They'll be sent
out in the coming weeks. Thank you so much again!
Best,
Andrew, Katherine, and Melanie
