Update #5: "Country Story" / film update #5

Posted on December 5, 2010

Hey everyone,

Just a quick update on COUNTRY STORY. It's December and I've been juggling being back in school full-time and trying to bring this project to completion. To let you know, I certainly haven't forgot about your generosity and for helping to enable this project. It's on my mind everyday!

I'm currently re-working the fifth cut of the film which is at about 78-minutes without credits as I type this, although it may get cut down to around 65 minutes should I have to remove a certain scene. I'll do my best to keep you updated and to fulfill those backer awards asap. My apologies there for the tremendous delay... thanks for understanding that I'm wearing a lot of hats with this project.

Couple un-edited screen grabs for your enjoyment.

Talk soon,

Ian
