Kapow... Alex looked to be having so much fun... and that was the point. Good job all round.
 
Holy smokes Batman, that was awesome!

(My eyes, they're watering, what is this???)

Appreciate the compliments Justin. Hopefully they were tears of joy which brought a smile to your face. :-)
 
Thank you Chris for being such great host and DOP-leader :o) WE all had a blast.

Please let me know when it is OK to post the video link in public.

Great editing! Love it.

... and yes, it was a day of (e)motion-pictures. :o)

Thanks guys! Was glad you could make it out Sassi. It never ceases to amaze be at the power behind our RU community. It's unlike any other cinema community out there.

I think more stories like this need to get told and brought to life, especially when it deals with children. Having 2 of my own, I can't imagine what it would be like to have a child with a life-threatening condition. Alex is just one of many, and my goal with this film was to not only allow Alex to relive and cherish his wish forever, but to bring awareness to the fact that Make-A-Wish doesn't just change a child's life forever, but an entire family's.
 
Chris, as I wrote in an e-mail a while ago, I believe deeply that such events will help the kids to gain health.

Thank you for endless energy, you really did a great job from "a to z", and the whole team was great!

I'm happy to have had the chance to support your work and Alex' day!

Robin says hi, and she can't wait to publish the link... (I check daily the Make a Wish Americas website).

Take care. :o)
 
That's a tremendous thing. Thank you for the doing, and the sharing of it. Wish I were there.

Thanks Scott! At least with the help of those people that attended, our entire community gets to share in the experience. :-)
