That was the most extraordinary week I think I have every had. Filming Annabel Lee on the Hartland Estate was unusually tough. It is a beautiful location, but boy does it have it's hurdles. No phone signal for roughly a 2 mile radius certainly didn't help. The one mile single track was like a video game, and the won a couple of times!
Oh My Giddy Aunt!!!!!
We've made our Kickstarter goal and the stretch goal, AND the underwater shoot. What a wonderful and generous lot of people you are. And my Australian Angel, is just that, a Godsend.
THANK YOU ALL.
Dear all, Nat asked me to post this one for you. I'm more than happy to do just that.
Hello everybody..... How are you all doing? I have been completely blown away by the response Annabel Lee is getting from people across the globe. Wonderful. And I happen to know that some of them have been........YOU !!!!!!
Hello all and everyone of you. Today we have launched the Kickstarter campaign for Annabel Lee, our short film.
This is the link. PLEASE spread the word and see if anyone you know can help. We are needing to generate quite a bit in a short space of time. And the thing about kickstarter is if you don't raise the money in the time allowed then the money gets returned to you. It's a clever but slightly scary angle from my point of view as a producer. But the thrills' the thing. It's a terrific script, very ambitious and we are taking it by the camera horns and going at it in no small measure. All the heads of departments are experienced top level people and then we are trying to give a chance to up and comers. But it is a tough shoot, 5 days on the coast of North Devon, (Please don't try to find us, we are very remote.) including night, water and stunts. Eeeks. And we have to put the whole crew up, so any help, ANY, would be gratefully appreciated. If you can spread the word and tweet or facebook,@annabelfilm on Twitter and @AnnabelLeeFilm on Facebook.
