A Successful Event!
WOW! I have to say that I was overwhelmed with the response that we had Friday Night for the premiere of the La Grande Summer Film Project. Despite some initial technical difficulties including some broken sound cables by a renegade beer cart that about 150 people stuck it out and squeezed into a tent to see what we had all been working on for the past week. I am very pleased! I am sure that this event has generated enough interest and support (we collected close to $200 in a pass around popcorn bag) to merit a version 2 of the event next year. Thank you everybody for your hard work and participation.
I realize that I was so deliriously tired that I forgot to take photos of the event... so if anyone has any please send them my way.
I am currently getting all of the videos put onto youtube and will post them in this here blog - so that those who did not get a opportunity to see them can enjoy them from home.
Also - as an additional fundraiser I will be selling the "La Grande Summer Film Project" Volume I to raise money for next year's event. Information on purchasing will be available via this blog and at www.coldcoffeemedia.com. Feel free to shoot me an email and reserve your copie(s) today.
Again thank you all - and I think we have created a new and exciting community event that can last for years to come. Pat each other on the back - take a breath... and GET SOME SLEEP!
