I apologize that it has been so long since my last update. To say that this season of Burn Notice has kept me busy would be an understatement. But now that I am officially on hiatus until the beginning of season 6, I am back working on Go Far, hoping to get as much done as I can before next year.

I wanted all of my generous donors to be aware of the progress regarding the interviews I plan to shoot. Since raising the money last March I have been in continuous contact with both Jerry Lewis and Tony Orlando. I had actually planned to shoot both of their interviews in April and had everything scheduled. However, just a few days before I was to travel to Las Vegas, Jerry Lewis received word from MDA that he would no longer be doing the Labor Day telethon. As you can imagine, this created a very difficult situation. The interviews were postponed, and for the next several months I went back and forth with Jerry's camp every other week trying to reschedule. Around the time of the telethon he decided he no longer wanted to be involved with anything related to MDA, thus canceling the interview. I am still optimistic that I can secure his interview once some time has passed. But the good news is that Tony Orlando is still on board and I plan to shoot his interview once his schedule permits.

The silver lining to all of this is that I can now use the money I raised to travel to Michigan and shoot the remainder of my interviews there. I have purchased my plane ticket and will be there next week. Once I come back with the footage I will post some of the raw material online so you can see what your much appreciated donations are helping to create.

Thanks again everyone! I'll keep you updated as things progress further.

I just passed my goal of $10,000!!!! That means your generous donation is now secure! Whether you are a $5 donor or a $1000 donor, I am equally thankful. I am here because of you.

I cannot thank all of you enough for your support. I am very passionate about this film and have been working to get it off the ground for a long time. This is the first time since I came up with the idea that I have confidence the film will be completed. Chris' message and legacy will have the opportunity to live on and reach people the way he did while he was alive.

I now have the funding I need to travel to Las Vegas and shoot my interview with Jerry Lewis. That will happen in September during the MDA Labor Day Telethon, so please be aware it will be several months before I can post video clips so you can see where your donation money went. Until then it will be safe in a high-yield hedge fund invested through Bernie Madoff's company....kidding.

But the journey is far from over. The next step is to raise enough funds to travel to Michigan for a week and shoot the remainder of my interviews with Chris' family, friends, and colleagues. I plan to reach out to the University of Michigan film department and get as much help as a I can to save money, but there will still be travel expenses and five days worth of crew salaries.

With the 10 days I have left, my goal is to raise an additional $15,000.

Bold, yes! But with $25,000 I will have covered my entire production budget and can shoot all of my material. Then the next step will be raising money for post-production, and the final leg of the journey is funding the finishing & mastering process (composing music, sound mixing, color correction, etc).

Please continue to pass along this site to friends, post to your loyal followers on Twitter, and to all of your Facebook friends. Every little bit that comes in now is extra and secure, so every donation now counts no matter what!

THANK YOU. You are helping to spread a positive message.
