Hi everyone!

I'm co-writing and producing a feature film in Kyrgyzstan (Central Asia), in what's today the former Soviet Union, and we're using Kickstarter to fund the project.  We're filming raw on the Canon 50D using Magic Lantern.  To our knowledge, the only feature film to date.

The film, Culmination, is about an unfaithful businessman, who as a result of his dark past, now struggles to clear his name and ransom his son from an avenging kidnapper within the next 24 hours.  The central theme of the film is about justice and how one cannot escape what they have done in the past.

Culmination is unique in a number of ways.

     1) First live action feature film to be filmed with a still photo

     2) First Kyrgyz film to be produced in the United States

     3) First Kyrgyz film to have world wide distribution

We will be updating our Kickstarter backers regularly with a video production journal.  We'll be discussing the triumphs and tribulations of working with Magic Lantern raw video in feature film production, what problems arised and how we resolved them.  This is your opportunity to learn from our mistakes and gain from our experience.

Our success depends on our Kickstarter campaign.  If we don't reach 100% of our $50,000 goal we won't receive anything from our backers.  It would mean a lot to me if you could donate to our project (even $5 helps!) and share our campaign with your friends and social networks.  Together help us make film history.  Thank you so much for your help!
