Hip-hip-hooray!Let's keep going!
Hi everyone,
Yesterday I awoke to surpassing our goal! I am so grateful to you all for making this happen and for your enthusiasm for the film.
Listen,I would make this documentary come hell or high water but the feedback I've been getting and encouragement just makes it all the more urgent.
Since we have 13 days to go on this kickstarter campaign ,I want to throw down a new gauntlet. There are still so many post-production expense challenges to get through and I would love to be able to include a whole bonus features package with the dvd.
I know I won't be able to use every bit of precious footage in the feature so I think a bonus footage package would be so much fun to see.
So,whaddaya' say? Let's shoot for a new goal of $10,000.
Thank you so much for making this campaign successful. Please continue to spread the word and please know I am forever grateful to you all.
Here's a lil' bit of Astor Barber owner Enrico Vezza humor I just wanted to share in celebration of reaching our 1st goal!
All my best from the Lower East Side,
Karen
