Update for 2012

Update #11 · Jan 30, 2012 · comment

Dear Backers,

Happy New Year 2012! We're excited to tell you we've been reviewing rough cuts of the documentary. Things are really moving forward. Muming and Iris have locked themselves up. Yang and Melissa have been self-learning what it means to produce a film, review content, plan for distribution, publicity, and handle legal terms.

An internal rough cut screening for the 4 of us~


Very luckily, we had one of the music backers offered to work for the whole movie score. After many considerations, we have decided to work with him solely for soundtrack, so the music part is also in progress. We'd like to thank all the artists who offered your work, and will continue to provide the publicity we promised.

If you are interested, here's a final list of people/organizations we have filmed for making this documentary.

Thanks to New Sponsors

Two companies, Alljack Premium Factory and Kiddie Paradise are 2 new sponsors for the documentary. They are friends as well as sponsors. Thank you! 

Seeing the Movie

We are settling down our deliver schedule. We estimate to have the film made in February, productions in March, screening in April/May, and send out your backer copies before that. The first show will most likely be in the San Francisco Bay Area! We welcome screening request from all over the world. Later on, the movie will be available for purchase.

Regarding screenings, feel free to contact us at: designthinking.movie@gmail.com
Meeting up with friend Eric helping us with ideas.

Thank You For Kickstarting Me.

A while back we were interviewed by a photographer JJ Casas to be included in his project documenting successful Kickstarter projects. It was our first time being interviewed! Recently it's launched on Kickstarter as well! Give it a look.
