We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

While we didn't fund...

Update #4 · Oct 5, 2012 · comment

...We've wrapped, we broadcast, we screened publicly and we may broadcast again!

While our funding didn't reach its target, we were still able to wrap our film and have it edited and scored by some great friends in Vancouver. GenSoc went onto be broadcast on CBC Regional on August 18th through the series Absolutely Vancouver. Through the tireless hardwork and support of some key people at HootSuite and the Social Media and Innovation Centre, spearheaded by none other than the film's key characters, Dave Olson and Alexandra Samuels, we screened it publicly on September 27th in Vancouver during Social Media Week. Now we're looking ahead to potential other screenings across Canada and the US as well as a potential second broadcast in the mix. 

Thanks for all of the ongoing support and interest - keep us with us & stay tuned for more great news as GenSoc lives on! Follow us at @GenSoc or on our site at http://www.generationsocial.net/
