Update #5: Post-Production

Posted on March 8

Hello wonderful backers!

Just wanted to give everyone a quick update on Post-Production of "The Drop Box." For the past several months, our team has been hard at work, preparing a cut for several important film festival deadlines. 

Mitchell McDuff, who served as a camera op. in Korea, built a highly sophisticated computer system that I have been using to organize and edit. Sam Jo (Producer) and Daniel Lee (Drop Box Team) have both been donating time to translation as well. We are on schedule. 

In other news, Bryce Komae and David Beylik (Music Supervisors) are currently collaborating on 4-5 original songs for the film, and Stephen Lim (Drop Box Team) is planning a local tour for the summer. 

My hope is that a rough cut of the film will be completed by the end of May. However, a full trailer will be released long beforehand. Keep an eye out for that! 

For now, take a gander at some screen shots of the editing process, and please keep this project, and more importantly, the children of JuSarang in your prayers. 

In His Service,

B

Update #4: Production comes to a close!

Posted on December 31

Hello All! 

The Traveling Team has just returned safely from 2 weeks of intense production in Seoul, South Korea! 

I think I speak for the entire squad when I say that the journey was amazingly blessed. And, of course, we could not have done it without your generosity and support! 

As our non-profit for the JuSarang Orphanage burgeons, volunteer opportunities will become available. Please stay tuned. 

For now, please feel free to check out the production blog via: http://www.dropbox-movie.com

A Behind-The-Scenes documentary will be available in the Spring, courtesy of USC Production Student Sterling Phillips! 

Happy New Year to all! 

Warmly,

B

P.S. For those who pledged $10 or more, please respond to this message with your FULL NAME so I can properly credit you on our site. Cheers!

      grace and peace to you, brian. just wanted to give you a tip on saving money on plane fare to korea. it's actually significantly cheaper to fly from san francisco to seoul than from lax. don't know why, but it's true. God bless your endeavor.

Update #2: 5 DAYS REMAINING!

Posted on October 25, 2011

Hey guys,

We only have 5 days left! Please remember that if we do not meet our goal by this Sunday, we lose EVERYTHING! 

Rally friends and family, send emails, post the link to Facebook. Let's give these children the life they deserve. 

Blessings,

      Good Luck Brian! I'm sure you'll make it - 90% of people who have made at least 30% of their goal, make their goal by the end. You have over 50% so I think you are in the clear.
      love,
      Hannah
