Halfway to Our Fundraising Campaign for The Diary of Preston Plummer!

We are halfway through our fundraising campaign for our new film The Diary of Preston Plummer. We are excited to report that we are nearing 25% of our goal. We have 2 weeks left and hoping to reach 100%!

If you are interested in cool commemorative items from the film or just want to support the arts, we'd love for you to be part of the project too. Here's the link to the IndieGoGo page:

We are so grateful for everyone's support. This film could not be made without the help and generosity of hundreds of people. We each have the power to keep indie filmmaking alive! Thank you!
