Help “Video Game High School: Season 2” Reach Its Kickstarter Goal!
The super talented Freddie Wong and Brandon Laatsch are in the last 4 days of their Kickstarter campaign to raise funding for season two of their smash hit and critically acclaimed series Video Game High School http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/freddiew/video-game-high-school-season-two?ref=live
You may remember that they helped us with our Kickstarter campaign by posting it on their FreddieW YouTube Channel. Andy guest starred in one of their most popular videos "Time Crisis" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKogQf9ooR8) which earned over 7 million views on their YouTube Channel (http://www.youtube.com/rocketjump - which has over 4 million subscribers).
Join us in thanking them for their support by helping them reach their goal before it ends on 11:59 PM PST this Monday, February 11. Good luck!
Congratulations and thank you to our dear friend Jai Courtney!
We congratulate our dear friend Jai Courtney for his upcoming role as John “Jack” McClaine, Jr., Bruce Willis’s son in the action-packed thriller, “A Good Day to Die Hard,” opening on Valentine’s Day, February 14th, 2013.
We also want to thank Jai for his mention of “Be Here Now” in his bio on the Die Hard website (http://www.diehardmovie.com/castandcrew/jaicourtney) and for his invaluable commitment, support and tireless efforts to help us finish the film and fulfill Andy’s wishes to help and inspire others by sharing his story.
Let’s cheer Jai on!
2013 Progress
To all of our friends,
Happy New Year!
To update you on our progress, I am happy to report that I just completed some needed filming for “Be Here Now,” (which is where I took this snapshot of a butterfly to share with you). My next step is to do some more needed filming and continue editing. (Big congratulations go out to our talented editor Dave Meneses whose previous short documentary just got an Oscar nomination!) Then, the normal route for documentaries is to submit it for consideration to be shown at major international film festivals. Of course, you will be the first to know when we are done. In the meantime, we will keep you posted on our progress.
We cannot thank you enough for your patience, continuous support and messages of encouragement. As many of you know, filmmaking takes a while so we appreciate your patience.
With 2012 disappearing in your rearview mirror and the empty road of 2013 beckoning you ahead – join us in making this an extraordinary year.
We send you best wishes for a healthy, dream-fulfilled and joyous year.
