Update #13: Swimming right along

Posted on March 10

Dear Backers, 

I just wanted to send a quick update. You haven't heard from me in a while and that's because I've had my head under the snow, cranking out the sandy frames of the film. With just 4 scenes left to shoot, I feel I'm on the home stretch! Here's an image from a recent scene. 

A few weeks ago, I had the chance to meet with composer Mark Orton at the Big Sky Documentary Film Fest. After an engaging conversation over pots of tea, I can say I am excited that we both seem to be riding the same wave when it comes to a musical approach to the film. You can read more about it on the Tangled Tale blog

For more frequent updates, you can always follow @TangledTaleFilm on Twitter. Or visit our page on FB.

As always thanks for your support,

Corrie

Posted on December 18

Dear Backers!

I'm very excited to announce that our new website has launched! Designer/developer Chelsea Kent has done a fantastic job reflecting the texture and mood of the film in a easy-to-navigate design that takes you deeper and deeper into A Tangled Tale

We're still finishing up the production blog, but everything else is running smoothly. I'll be posting regular updates on the blog and our new Facebook and Twitter pages so there's lots of way for you to stay abreast of the film's progress. 

Take a moment to take scroll through the site and let us know what you think. http://www.atangledtalefilm.com/ 

It's thanks to you, that this is all coming together, so again let me send you a great big holiday ball of gratefulness!

Warmly,

Corrie
