We've been THIGHED!!!

Update #2 · Aug 25, 2012 · comment

Huge gratitude and thanks to all who made the THIGH Kickstarter campaign a potent, practical reality. Your generosity will be remembered. The footage is cutting together brilliantly. Micro-investments/mass-patronship/support from friends: this is how we can make beautiful things happen.

We'll be in touch over the next few weeks and months about getting you your well-deserved contributions gifts.

Here's a still from the behind-the-scenes doc shot by Steve Holloway of our lead, Josephine Wheelright, playing Naomi, with Elliot, one of the roji garden's beloved Tortoises - we're sticking very close to tradition ;)

YES - We just finished our first shoot!

Update #1 · Aug 20, 2012 · comment

Hello Hello!

We just wrapped shooting and we're over the moon - everything came together, the sets, costumes and rare and remarkable performances. 

Many thanks for your generosity - please help us in the next 3 days get the word out about our project to whomever you can, and if you can contribute a little more, please do! Alex and I would love to take you on a food tour...

The funds we've raised so far made the shoot possible.  We now have a long and rewarding road ahead with post-production, editing, sound design, color correction and making it all pop!  Your contributions make it all happen.

Check out the photos below for the smallest taste of what we were working on!

Love,

A&D
