"BOONVILLE" CROSSES THE FINISH LINE! POST PRODUCTION BEGINS
Photographer Timothy Briner's exploration of small town America wrapped up a nine month journey to six states and six towns, finishing up in Boonville, California at the end of May. Post-production begins and your involvement is very much needed: $250.00 sponsors a week of work and brings the project closer to its gallery debut. View the first images and key project information here.
NEW PROJECT LAUNCH: MATT STACEY'S BIO REVOLUTIONS
Matt Stacey - in partnership with Cannery Works - is launching a new project entitled "BIO REVOLUTIONS" - a multi-media documentary of the alternative fuel phenomenon currently taking place in America. BIO REVOLUTIONS is an eight-week, cross-country adventure to 15 states, using environmentally conscious transportation, digital photography and audio recordings to create a socially important 15 minute documentary. $500.00 supports a full week on the road: food, lodging, and fuel - hybrid or bio diesel! PLUS: $1.00 from every $100 raised goes to benefit American Forests, where $1.00 pays for the planting of a tree. For more information about Matt Stacey and BIO REVOLUTIONS, please click here. To make a donation on behalf of this project, please click HERE and specify BIO REVOLUTIONS in the memo.
