UPDATES!!!

I have been gone too long from you... But back to working hard. Currently I am still accepting a few submissions -and I'll accept yours if you ask us to- as well as transcribing those sent in. Let me tell you, we have some great footage. I'm so excited as I watch the videos sent in...great quality and heartfelt openness as we are allowed into the daily lives of these families.

Just a quickie for you as I am working away... the plan currently is to transcribe the footage I have to create a longer trailer cut of the film for the Frameline grant application. I think we are a perfect fit for this.

As more entries come in, I will continue to transcribe...I will then read and study and let the dialogue given sink in...I'll wait for it, wait for it, wait for it to come to me...you know, the IT. When things click. When your core comes out and you feel connected to the message, the creation, the work. And it flows. So nice. Meaning, creativity will strike and I will write it down...take notes on the transcriptions, cut them out, post them up, rearrange them...create animation and insert it in the proper areas...I'm also going to work on expanding my style a bit to include less straight up documentary style and get a bit more creative and out of the box with it.

I feel really great about where we are going. I just sent a camera to Rwanda and it has arrived! Soon we will be receiving footage from LGBT families there as well. It feels so good to have many others from around the world working together for the mission of creating awareness and human connection. We are connected...
