Help get SIMILO finished

[Miguel "Macgregor" De Olaso]

Hi guys. We need your help to be able to finish our 5 year scifi shortfilm. We are just at the very end of postproduction and really close to be finished. We are fundraising to get VFXs and filmprint done.

We have created a kickstarter project with a lot of details about the project.
You can pledge and take a look at the TEASER at http://bit.ly/similo2010

SIMILO has been shot in s35mm, Red One, Phantom HD and even miniDV. I´m attaching here some WORK IN PROGRESS screenshots to tease you guys.

You can even help with $1.

What a pleasure to get a chance to back a film like this. It looks AMAZING!

Mac is gonna win an Oscar some day, IMHO.

I'm in! I loved the original "teaser"
Lets hope it happens

Go for it, Mac!

I'm too poor to buy a Red One or even a Scarlet - but not too poor to contribute $50 to a project I believe in. Similo was fantastic - can't wait to see what you guys do with a real budget (even if it's a fraction of Hollywood's).

I'll contribute more later. If I put in $1 every hour and keep bumping the thread, do you think it'll do good or just piss everyone off? :incazzato:

OK, other 7000 RED-owning folks who have more material possessions than me: your move!

Hi Paolo, actually I don´t have a problem you reading the script, but I don´t think it does justice to the shortfilm. It´s such a visual project that you´d barely get 20% of what we are telling.

Once again, thanks everyone for getting involved.

Funded already, Mig. Cant be misleaded by any 20% script anymore

Later,
Jason
