Hi, this presentation is well done - the pitch deck gives a lot of really helpful information and shows the time and effort you are putting in to this campaign. Quick questions: 1. Was the script covered, and if so, how did it do? 2. I'm concerned that so little of this raise ...

Hi Alan- Thanks for the interest in our project, and for the kind words as well as taking the time to ask these questions. We're definitely in an interesting time in the world. I wish there was a simpler answer for the last one, but I'll do the best I can -- 1. We did not get the script covered. It is, however, my 17th feature screenplay, and we had a very strong idea of what story we wanted to tell, and what we wanted to accomplish going in to the shoot. We are all very excited about what we...

Hi Cal, thanks for the very thoughtful and thorough answers to my questions - I liked both the content itself, and also how it shows that you value investors and put time and effort into everything related to this project. I'm definitely in.

Hi Alan- Thank you for your faith, support, investment, and deciding to take this journey with us despite these trying times. It's gonna be an expedition! Looking forward to great days ahead. Sincerely, -Cal Barnes

it looks like use of funds covers up to $107,000, but the max raise is set to $250,000, I assume that this was a last minute change due to the wording used in several places in the campaign info.... so why the post budget thats so much higher than the cost putting the film in ...

Hi Andrew- Thanks for writing and bringing attention to this. Our raise is actually capped at $107K -- not $250K -- we're working on getting this displayed properly so it should be corrected soon. As far as our $97,825 - $107k post-production and marketing budget, the use of these funds is broken down in our line-item budget in the Q&A section. As mentioned in the pitch video, getting the film 'in-the-can' for $15K would not have been possible without the upfront trade contributions of Jo...

hi Cal Barnes. I would like to know when is your movies will come out? thank you

Hi Loc- Once post-production is funded we'll still have about 3-4 months to complete the film and get it through finishing. Projected completion date for the film is Fall 2020. From there, the release date will be dependent on a variety of factors we do not yet know, such as, if we will be premiering at a film festival or going direct to streaming, any future distribution partners we bring on and what their ideas for the film may be, and the state of the entertainment industry as a whole afte...

Two questions 1. How many days did it take to shoot the film? 2. Tell us more about Lucia Xypteras. Thanks

Hi Kevin- Thanks for writing. The film took us roughly two weeks to shoot. To date, we've had 13 shooting days, and once the quarantine is lifted we'll likely have 1-2 more days of pick-ups and b-roll shoots. So basically 2 weeks give or take. Lucia Xypteras is a South African actress. In her first year in Hollywood she booked two features -- 'Adventures of Aladdin', and our film, 'The Astrid Experience', as well as a variety of other modeling jobs and music videos -- out of the 1,500 submiss...
