Dear Backers:
We'll be sending out some Thank-You cards this week. We had a lot of fun making them and it was a great opportunity to think about how without each and every one of you, this film would still be just a dream. All of us from the Creek team are so thankful for you generosity and your interest in this film.
If you haven't yet sent in your postal address to us, you can email me directly at jonathan.j.johnson@gmail.com
Each card is unique (I posted some examples below) and we hope you get a kick out of them.
Thank you!
all the very best,
Jonathan
Hi All:
I wanted to take a moment to update you on the progress we're making on our new film The Creek When He Came Back.
It seems hard to believe but it was only a little over two months ago when we started our Kickstarter campaign. Two weeks after we successfully reached our Kickstarter goal, we set off for Austerlitz, NY to complete the principal photography at our upstate location.
Although we still have a lot of work to do to complete the production for the scenes that take place in New York area, I wanted to share with you a sneak peek of a few screen grabs from some of the scenes we shot upstate. Thanks to our cast/crew, this amazing location, and most importantly your contribution and interest in this film, we were able to capture what I think are some really beautiful scenes and images.
If you liked to see more from this picture set, you can check them out on Flickr at the following link:
As always, I'd love to hear any feedback you may have.
very best,
Jonathan
