We're slowly recovering from the affects of hurricane Sandy.
Although we have sustained some damages we're grateful that our friends and
family are safe. We certainly hope you are all well!
In short time we'll continue our efforts to promote and
finance our comedy film, MEGABALL$...and we're keeping as active as
circumstances allow.
We're pleased that over the past week interest continues to
grow and our 'numbers' are up. Our Twitter account nears 300 followers and our Facebook group has 282 followers.
Our video "The Story Behind MegaBall$" has
16,665 views. The video 'Teaser'
has 14,736 views from 82 different countries; our YouTube Channel
has 171 subscribers. Please feel free to encourage your friends to view these
videos and to ask them to follow our progress on Twitter and Facebook....and ask
the same of their friends
The film's website continues to
attract good traffic and we've added a page for comments from persons who have
read the screenplay. We frequently review and edit the screenplay - to make the
film 'tight' and filming efficient.
We have gotten our first estimate on a MegaBall$ APP, which
will help promote the film throughout the various stages of production and
sales. The design of the APP is not only for marketing, but it will randomly
select numbers for lotto games while 'speaking' a line from the film. We also
hope to add a similar feature to our web site. We plan to have the APP running
before we begin production, and all our supporters and investors will be the
first to receive the APP. (FYI the APP is featured within the
film!)
The damages and costs associated with hurricane Sandy will
limit interest from local investors for some time....so, as we continue to set
up meetings we'll need to depend more on networking to find other potential
investors. We are also looking for
other sources of funding, such as grants and 'crowdsourcing,' to combine with
private equity financing. We have responded to encouraging requests from the
Tribeca Institute and submitted for one of their grants. There remain several
interested individuals considering financial involvement.
We greatly appreciate your support and faith!
Best regards,
