Kickstarter Project: Days 18 through 22

The past few days have been spent focused on family, and in considering the future of this project.

We have slightly over a week remaining. If the Kickstarter funding is going to happen, it will be amazing, and big, and ... Well, let's see what happens.

The next week will be busy, and if you can share this project, please do so with the following message:



I am busy promoting my Kickstarter Project, which is available until April 17th, 2013.

Feet On The Ground; Head In the Clouds Feet on the Ground; Head in the Clouds will be a  documentary film about making and flying kites and other non-motorized aircraft. It will involve creative input from the community of backers and will help promote emerging musicians.

This project cannot succeed without your help. I am trying to raise $35,000 to gain the professional tools to see my vision through. 
Anyone interested in spreading the word about my project can do so through any of these channels:

Kickstarter Project: Days 15 and 16

Back my project! Come one! Come All! 

We have less than two weeks to make this project successful. The pressure is on; are we up for it?!

As I responded today to my most recent backer of this project, I realized they were from Canada. Our neighbors to the North and many places around the globe may be more interested in this project than I gave them credit for.

I have changed the rewards to accommodate shipping outside the United States.

Back my project! Come one! Come All!
If you are located outside of the US, please add $10 to your pledge to help with the higher cost of shipping.

As always, please direct friends to check out the project here:

Kickstarter Project: Days 13 and 14

I'm afraid there was not much to report over the weekend. Let's make this next week big!

Positive note:
We got our first backer who I'm sure does not know me personally. We need more of that!

UTAH FILM PROJECT PROMOTES COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT
Participants Will Make Creative Choices During Film Production; Emerging Musicians Encouraged To Submit Their Signature Single

An upcoming documentary film will bring together DIY projects, flight, community involvement, and original music. The title of this film is Feet On The Ground; Head In The Clouds. The Director is searching for backers to help fund production. Filming will begin in May 2013 and will be shot mostly within the Salt Lake Valley. The film is scheduled for release in February 2014.

Director Brandon Wilhelmsen explains that he is confident the film will be a success. "Whether this film is successful is measured in more than the camera angles and lighting. I want to take my community with me to create something lasting," says Brandon.

The idea for this film project began about five years ago in 2007, when Brandon set out to build a very large kite. Focused on work and school, Brandon allowed the project to sit in the corner and gather dust until this year. With a renewed determination to finish projects that had been abandoned, Brandon knew he wanted to document the project in some way. Photographs alone were not compelling, and then the idea to film the building and flying of the kite came to life. This would become a project larger than he previously imagined.

The community can become involved by backing the film’s Kickstarter project. The community of backers from the Kickstarter project will be voting on what music will be used in the film, as well as other creative decisions. Musicians are also welcomed to begin submitting their signature singles for voting. All genres of music are welcomed, with one caveat: the music must be family friendly. Brandon states, “I want parents to feel comfortable with their children viewing the film.”

Brandon Wilhelmsen is a graduate from the University of Utah, and studied film through courses there and while attending Salt Lake Community College. He has also collaborated on a few independent projects with friends.

Kickstarter Project: Day 11


New rewards, and a need to share the project widely...

I am looking for any help I can get in sharing this project. We have a small following and a few backers, but we still are looking for the groundswell that will make this project successful.

Please share these images and the link to this project. (kck.st/WyJOoC)  Back us if you can, but please share it.

I have added a reward for those who are interested in taking part in the pre-screening of the film, and may not have $250 to back this project with. Take a look! It is limited to the first 100 people to back at $125 or more.

If there are any companies looking for creative advertising, I ask you to take a look at the Corporate Sponsor reward. This one breaks the mold, because it is designed as an avenue for sponsorship of the project, rather than having a creative hand in this film. Companies names and/or logos will appear in the credits of the film, and I will produce an ad for them to be spread online.

With all of this, I hope to reach people who are interested in DIY innovation and fun.

Let's make a movie!
