Thanks for your support of the Patrick Scully films!

 
Some Color possibilities on Leaves of Grass: Illuminated by Colorist Dave Sweet of Pixel Farm productions.
Happy spring to our supporters of the Patrick Scully films. It's so sweet to see the snow melt!
The coloring has just begun on "Leaves of Grass: Illuminated"! This film is the live performance from the Guthrie theater in the summer of 2019. Above you can see a possible look to the movie's final color tone. I am very happy to have Dave Sweet doing the color on "Leaves of Grass: Illuminated".
I want to thank Patrick for putting out a call for performance videos that were filmed at the Cabaret during his tenure. If you have films or tapes from your performance, pls send them to me. We'd love to review them and also look at any show bills or photographs. Because of this call, the Walker Art Center has contacted us about looking at some events they held at the Cabaret. That is very encouraging. This is another example of the collaborative nature of films. This film isn't just about Patrick, its also about the community around him and the Cabaret.
We are looking for possible film fests to premiere the live performance film this year. If you know of a great one, pls send me a link.
We continue to edit the biopic, "The Dance Is Not Over"  about Patrick Scully. Our editor Skip Davis has just made another cut, which I will review this week. We are getting close to having the "audio cut" finished on that film. Thanks Skip for getting both films closer to completion.
As you know, this film is 98% funded by your individual donations! We still are looking for more donations or grants for finishing funds. Your gifts last month of $125 got us a step closer to our goals. Thanks Jay and Adam!
Can you give $22? 1000,  $22 donations gets us to our goal.  This is what we have left to raise.

$5,000 towards the edit of the films

$1500 for color correction for the Biopic

$3,750 for original music

$6,000 for Production and Direction

 $2750 for Audio mixing 

$2500 for Rights & clearances

$500 for Festival costs

The 22K goal is to finish post-production. You can donate tax deductible with our fiscal sponsor Film North or to our gofundme page. Click on those highlighted links.
