Two posts in one week? It must be important!

As many of you know, Trevor has been developing his thesis film at AFI for the last several months. There has been a positive response to his work thus far, so this longer, more involved film is an exciting challenge for him. He is working with a very impressive team. The cinematographer he's working with, for instance, is the assistant to Wally Pfister, who has been the cinematographer for many Christopher Nolan movies, like The Prestige, Batman Begins, and The Dark Knight.

This is the film that will help Trevor get his master's degree, sure, but it will also be shown at festivals, thereby jump-starting his career. The people who see it at festivals will be the people Trevor will hopefully get to work with in the future. So this is it.

Anyway, the story for this film is pretty amazing and they have worked really hard to get to this point. Trevor and his team are scheduled to start shooting next month and now it's crunch time. They have been raising money along the way, but they're still coming up short. They need $6,500 more to make it.

So we're posting this because we want to get the word out about what he's been working on and to see if you or anyone you know might be able to help. And don't think you have to donate an arm and a leg. The majority of their budget will be obtained through donations of $50 or $100. And if you can only give $5, give $5. Anything will help them make this film.

If you donate, you'll be given screen credit (which is awesome) and you'll also get your own DVD copy. So if you're interested in making a donation, visit http://sandbagsfilm.com/donateform.php.

And please pass this on to anyone who might be interested. We'll of course take whatever we can get, but small donations are where it'll count.

Thanks, everyone.
