Well, I have some VERY exciting news!!!!! :D Last night, at 1 o'clock, Burns Family Studios announced their next film project; Beyond the Mask.
Me, being the fanatic fan of their last film–Pendragon: Sword of His Father–that I am, stayed up until the wee hours of the morning for their announcement, and then looking and re-looking over all of the information that they had released. But let me tell you. . . it was worth it. . . completely! I have been looking forward to what their next film would be ever since I watched Pendragon for the first time, and I was not disappointed. Indeed, my expectations were probably surpassed ten times over! For the first full minute after I watched the production trailer, all I could do was sit there, my mouth gaping and eyes bulging while I made garbled little sounds of pleasure that may have been me trying to muffle the scream of pure joy and thrill that was bubbling up inside of me. I've since watched that same production trailer about 5 times. And you can watch it too by clicking right here. . . .
However, to make this film they need lots of people to sponsor. If you follow the same link above, it will lead you to their Kickstarter site where you can donate money to help them fund the film. The deadline for sponsoring is August 31st, and they must have at least $20,000 by then, or else the film won't get funded. Besides their production trailer, there is another short video that shows more of their progress and plans for the film as well as explaining how Kickstarter works.
Even if you aren't able to support them financially, they are looking for volunteers as extras and/or helpers to create sets, props, and costumes. You can sign up for this on their website. I'm planning on helping out in whatever way I possibly can, and I hope that you will do the same. :)
