Project By
Connected as Cami Kidder (789 friends)
Since moving to Los Angeles from Vermont a few years ago, Cami has produced and directed 3 documentaries including the award winning, STORE. She is currently is in post-production on “Bottom of the 9th”, a tribute film to her Dad, one of the world's greatest Red Sox fans and an all-around amazing person. She and her small, but dedicated crew are currently self-funding to capture events for “Throw Like A Girl” because there is no 'take 2' in the documentary world.
Energized by the feeling of possibility, she often finds it difficult to sleep as more and more film ideas come into her mind. Believing that lessons are best learned with healthy dose of entertainment, she hopes that her quests for understanding will make a subtle impact on humanity ala ripples in a pond.
Is there any way we can help? Though I'm a terrible player myself, I'm heavily involved in the game in other ways. For instance, I'm a devout and serious scorekeeper--to the point where I design and print my own scorebooks. (I find the ones currently on the market are insufficiently detailed.) I'm also involved with an organization called "Stitch N Pitch" (stitchnpitch.com), and because of them, I now have a pair of my knitted, Rockies-themed socks on display in the "Today's History" section in Cooperstown. I've even had the opportunity to get to know one of the more remarkable AAGPBL players. (That's an interesting story in itself.)
I'd love to find a way to help you tell this story. Good luck!
I was confused by that comment as well.
I'm sorry I don't understand the context of your comment because I can't discern the tone of it. In case we've inadvertently upset you, I'll explain. The title is a play on words, since it is a common insult to tell people they throw, kick, punch, run etc "like a girl." We are making a film about empowering girls and women to strive for whatever they want regardless of naysayers. Therefore we are turning the insult around and claiming our right to play any sport, do any job, live any life we choose. Thanks!
Never throw like a girl, throw like a basebalplayer!!
