User Generated -Youtube documentary "Life in a Day"

Hello friends.

This just came live.

I am only posting this here. This is an AMAZING opportunity for the VSN network. A very big hollywood director wants to make a youtube generated documentary by taking footage from all around the world on July 24th. There are still many questions as to how exactly this film will be put together. I am still investigating as to exactly what this is. BUT It is very exciting for film people especially VSNers to have the offer to show what life for them… Continue

Exactly my thoughts!

Hey guys,

here is a great interview from Barbara that has to do with where the church is and where the church ought to be and what the church's perception is on the medium of film and filmmakers in General.

There were a lot of interesting things in there and I found myself saying amen, more then once.

Enjoy!

Blessings from Germany

Travis

We (Christians) have created a phenomenal subculture .......... But what we’ve really done is create a ghetto that is easily dismissed by the rest of society.

Interesting topic that started over on FB! Was curious if you guys have any extra thoughts to add to this topic?



cheers from Germany

Hi Travis,
Thanks for writing. Where are you located? Just before Christmas I gave Success seminars at three German universities (Bonn, Braunschweig and Jena) and to business professionals in Cologne. We concluded with the Key to eternal success. They have invited me back for next spring. Maybe we could hook up.
Blessings,
Harold

Hey Travis,
It's cool that you connected with Janina. I also had lunch with her here at the ICVM conference last fall. She is a good contact for you in the German film world. Her partner in the doc that was at Sabaoth is also a good guy, Christopher Cuhls. He's on FB also.

I am finally hearing again from our sales agent. Just got a response from an e-mail today. They're gearing up for the next markets: Sundance, Berlin, Prague, etc. He has promised a report in the next week or so (hopefully before Sundance) and that will give me an idea of where they are at in Europe.

Crazy thing happened this week also; a guy in the Netherlands sent me a complete Dutch translation of the script. And he hasn't even seen the film! He heard about it from a friend and got his hands on a word doc we had sent to someone else.

Blessings,
Tom
