Featured Film:
The Widow's Might

Today's featured film is The Widow's Might, a full-length movie made by Heumoore Productions, a filmmaking company started by homeschool graduates.  This film won the Jubilee Award, a $101,000 grand prize, in the 2009 San Antonio Independent Christian Film Festival (SAICFF), up against competitors such as Fireproof, and The Secrets of Johnathon Sperry.  

The film is about two aspiring filmmakers who, upon learning of the plight of a nearby widow about to lose her home through outrageous and unjust property taxes, do what they do best: make a film to help.
Through trials, public smears, and laughs, this tale will capture your heart.
Here's a trailer:

Want a RED? Now is the time to consider a SCARLET

Most of you out there have probably heard of RED Digital Cinema, the leader in 4K and 5K video devices. As recently as within the past three weeks, RED cameras had been completely beyond the reach of anyone who didn't have $10,000 lying around (and that's just for the camera body, no lenses or any other equipment).  But on November 1st, RED announced that they were dropping their prices.

(Unfortunately, the RED ONE has sold out as of November 16th)
 So, if any of you out there have had some thousands you've been sitting on, or an older RED, now may be the time to upgrade your equipment.

New Project Announcement

Having finished our project Tea and Toast, we have now turned our attention towards our next project.  Hold on to your hats, folks; we've discussed many different ideas, and it could be anything from a comedy set in the age of discovery to a chaotic Christmas dinner ballet!
