Great, great news! We've wrapped on filming and are now entering the post-production phase!

A huge thank you to everyone who helped bring Hide Your Smiling Faces to life - everyone who pledged their support on Kickstarter, everyone who spread the word about the project to their friends and family, everyone who gave their time and energy working to make it a beautiful film. Without all of you, we would not be where we are today.

We are going to start with the rewards as soon as we can. Keep an eye on our FB page (http://www.facebook.com/HideYourSmilingFaces) for the special shout outs to everyone who donated. We will also be posting updates, videos and production stills on that page, so keep checking back! Don't forget to "like" the page if you haven't yet. 

Thanks a million!

We Did It!

Update #4 · Jul 8, 2011 · comment

100% funded and counting! Thanks to all of your generosity, yesterday we reached our goal a full 4 days before the deadline. Deepest thanks to all of you for supporting us and the project. Every donation got us that much closer to being able to execute this project with the original vision intact.

Be sure to stay up to date by checking in here and on our Facebook page for reports from the front lines. 

We leave for set in just a few hours. Over the next three weeks, a crew of around 15 and a cast of 8 will bring this project to life. Wish us luck!

Hi HYSF Supporters!

It really can't be said how thankful we are for your support. It means so much to us as we put the last touches on pre-production and head into production on Saturday!

Your support has been so great and has brought us to over 80% funded. With your help we can push that much further and make this film a success! If everyone that has pledged can find at least one person to give $15, we will surpass our goal. Don't forget that anything over our goal goes straight to the movie, but if we don't get to that $5000 goal we get NOTHING.

Please take a minute to send the Kickstarter links to your family, friends, colleagues - anyone you know that loves and supports independent film.

Thanks and we'll be in touch soon.

50% Funded in Three Days!

Update #2 · Jun 24, 2011 · comment

Thanks to the kindness and generosity of our 33 wonderful funders (and counting!) we crossed the 50% mark last night. It looks like we are going to hit our goal well before the deadline.

For a very-low-budget film like ours, I can assure that every donation will go a long way. We cannot thank you enough for your support.

Production is right around the corner. Keep on the lookout for more updates over the next few weeks.
