"The Starmind Record" needs your help!

Happy Holidays, one and all!  This has been a vital year for 8 Sided Films, between the successful production of "The Starmind Record" and the development of Quantum Theory.  Excellent reviews and a passionate audience response have shown us that we've created something very special in "The Starmind Record".  Thank you for making it possible.

Launching Quantum Theory into production depends heavily on bringing "Starmind" to the widest possible audience.  To that end we are submitting to festivals, looking for advertising opportunities, and involving as many people as possible in the 8 Sided Forum.  This is where we truly begin building the audience for our repertory.

As one of our earliest supporters, we are asking you to contribute to this critical stage in our development.  Our IndieGoGo campaign allows us to broaden our reach with festival submissions, reach out to film fan blogs for advertising and endorsements, and possibly even host events.  Every dollar counts, and we've thrown some very neat rewards into the mix.  Every gift of $10 allows you to broadcast a link to the social media community we have worked so hard to build.  Every gift of $25 puts you in one, final, fun episode of "The Starmind Record!

Our fundraising campaign ends in 8 days, on Christmas. This is our last major push for Starmind as we await festival responses and roll into development on Quantum Theory. We hope you'll help us make it a success, and we hope you'll enjoy that success with us as we tell even more exciting and challenging stories. The link to our fundraising page on IndieGoGo is here: indiegogo.com/starmindfest

Happy Holidays from "The Starmind Record", and everyone at 8 Sided Films. Thank you for making this hear such a resounding triumph. Here's to a prosperous, successful, fun and challenging 2012!

Yours truly,

Tennyson E. Stead

Quantum Theory cinematographer Johnny Derango explains why this story is worth telling:

Quantum Theory Interview 12

Cinematographer and producer Johnny Derango discusses his reasons for joining the production team of Quantum Theory:

LEAD FEMALE ROLE in SCI-FI HEIST MOVIE, 25-28 YRS OLD

CHELSEA is a genius, and she knows it. Witty, energetic, hides her insecurities behind nerdy bravado. Geek girl extraordinaire with big eyes and earth-shattering smile to lead goofy, sexy ensemble cast in science-fiction heist caper.

With her best friend and research partner ROE, Chelsea has developed technology that can literally shape reality. When that technology is stolen by a scheming defense contractor, Chelsea and her friends must out-think an enemy with unlimited resources and control over the very fabric of reality itself to get it back!

NOTICE: QUANTUM THEORY is an independent and highly entrepreneurial production effort from an ensemble with extensive experience, both creatively and business-wise. Together, we have assembled the resources to finance, produce and THEATRICALLY distribute an outstanding, nerdy, punky movie for all the girls and boys to love... and now we are looking for a star with enough fight in her to blog, tweet, and claw her way to fortune and applause alongside the rest of us.

Before and after the film is shot, there will be substantial investments of time, energy, and creativity. We offer the support and structure to make it worthwhile, creatively and financially. Production will be paid on a SAG ultra-low basis.

Dear Friends,

To everyone who has supported “The Starmind Record,” through donations or word of mouth, I extend my gratitude. In every respect, our show has matched or exceeded expectations. Our first review (here) is gushing, the Internet Movie Database (here) has included us as a listing, and festivals are receiving our submissions with titillating enthusiasm.

All of these things, ultimately, are tools to lead our audience to us. Our IndieGoGo campaign is specifically to help fund additional festival submissions, as well as advertising on geek-interest blog sites. If there is one thing I’d like to see over the holidays, it’s to see “The Starmind Record” find the audience it deserves. Please, join our IndieGoGo campaign (here), and know that every gift, on any level, helps us achieve this goal. We’ve come up with a handful of really fun ways to reward participation and a few more that might help you promote your own projects, so please pay heed to the “perks” of donating:

If you haven’t seen “The Starmind Record” (here), I hope you will. Please, tell others to do likewise. Thank you for the support you’ve shown and continue to show to myself, my collaborators, and the stories we tell. Happy Holidays, one and all!

Yours truly,

Tennyson E. Stead
