Well, we have been busy filming, editing and scheduling this documentary that never ceases to surprise us.
Update #1: One update is that we did NOT meet our crowdfunding goal which makes this endeavor more challenging and interesting. I want to create the best documentary possible so we shall see what happens. A few of you have reached out to me with people who “may be” interested in partially funding or donating so this film can be completed. I remain steadfast and continue to move forward with the anticipation that all of our needs will be met (yes I pray!). I started this project with no financial resources and sold possessions to get this far based on a vision and passion for story telling.
Update #2: I was able to get permission to use a song from an artist for the official trailer that fits perfectly! Why is this important? Many people charge, as is their right, for music use but I have become unashamed of my poverty and readily admit to artists and interested parties that I can’t pay them but would like to use their music. So far, this artist is the first to agree and we have another artist that penned to original songs for the documentary! These are signs and events that keep pushing me forward and affirm that I am on the right path.
Anyways, please continue to share, repost and spread the word that The Great American Lowrider Tradition documentary will be coming in 2019! All prayers, donations and fundraising ideas are welcomed.
