When we shot the “I Like Flowers” video in July, our directing mentor Ed Ng brought in a team of filmmaking colleagues to help guide our team. One of those was D’Adonis Moquette, who worked closely with our student director, 15-year-old (!) Madison Chau. D’Adonis produced this fantastic, five-minute behind-the-scenes video that I think you’ll really enjoy: https://youtu.be/HIp_RGGR2RI After you watch it, I think you’ll agree that it was a pretty special experience for our eight Berkeley High student crew members. Our many professional mentors—including but not limited to Ed, D’Adonis, Unni, Monroe, Jameson, and Elly—brought their expertise (and their gear) to create an unforgettable learning opportunity for our students.
And now is when I ask you for some money. Because those professional mentors, though they generously donated their time, were not free. We covered their lodging, meals, and transportation—all items that were not in our original crowdfunding budget. Everyone except Ed was an unexpected (albeit most welcome) late addition. Will and I were not about to deny our students the opportunity to work with them, even if it meant going decidedly over-budget (about $2,500, if you were wondering). Would you be willing to help make up the shortfall? $5, $25, or whatever works for you would really mean a lot to us. Please donate here: https://tiptopjar.com/ecosoulentertainment 100% of your donations will support this project (and if we exceed our goal, the next one!). If you’ve already given through our crowdfunding campaign, thank you. Now that you’ve seen your donation was well spent, please consider adding a bit more. =) If you prefer to donate via another method, please e-mail me at [email protected]. In case you missed the final product, here’s the I Like Flowers music video! https://youtu.be/8A1oojuEFXk Thank you SO much for your support! |
