Text of the page (random words):
arpon springs if we had pushed our shoot one month we would have had our production smack dab in the path of an oncoming hurricane luckily we had wrapped in time and tarpon springs made it through irma without too much damage our thoughts and prayers are with those who were affected by irma as well as harvey and jose and maria and the fires in ca and the earthquakes in mexico we hope the recovery goes well in all the hard hit areas as for epiphany the idea for the story came from the writer director team koula sossiadis kazista and katina sossiadis they both grew up going to tarpon springs each summer it s a very charming town near the gulf coast with a strong greek community it s also the hub for sponge diving about 27 years ago koula decided to write a screenplay about a sponge diving family set in tarpon springs cut to today after many years of starts stops and rewrites the film has finally been made and we are in post production i am so happy and proud of our efforts and i m so happy for koula who has spent decades trying to tell this story and it s finally happening and it s going to be a beautiful film to top it all off it was a female led crew love my producing partners and directors the journey of one movie is so amazing to me it s probably why i love making them last year we made a movie titled 20 weeks about a young couple who finds out their baby in utero may have a genetic issue the writer director leena pendharkar had the idea and wrote it in less than a year we went into production six months later and we have already had a world premiere at the los angeles film festival in june we are going on an eight city festival tour in october november that was the fastest i ve ever moved on making a movie and epiphany is probably the longest gestation period i ve experienced for a film though i really only joined epiphany officially about two to three years ago we had a wonderful shoot despite the heat haha and now we are in post production excited to complete the film with great music and color and we wanted to get the word out that we have entered a contest on the crowdfunding site seed spark sponsored by the duplass brothers the winners can pitch the duplass brothers and see if they will come on board their film as executive producers and have them bring money toward finishing the film up to 25k having the duplass brothers executive produce our film and provide us with finishing funds would be incredibly helpful to our small independent feature so i hope i can ask my blog readers to please follow our campaign on seed spark you don t have to contribute any money to follow the campaign and the number of followers on our campaign really does make a big difference it allows us to get to the finals and get the exposure we need for the film to have a fighting chance so please click on this link and help us make it to the finals thank you link to epiphany s seed spark campaign and if you are able to contribute to the campaign thank you so much see you at the movies everyone much love posted by janekk at 11 11 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels 20 weeks crowdfunding epiphany producing production friday june 16 2017 our new films 20 weeks at the los angeles film festival and pitching tents release and more i can t believe it s been a year since i ve last posted on this blog it s a testament to how crazy busy my work and life has gotten i ve been making movies one right after the other these past couple of years it s a wonderful problem to have but it also means i have less time to do other things like write this blog so let s do a little catch up since last summer in the summer of 2015 we filmed a coming of age teen comedy set in 1984 titled pitching tents i ve always wanted to produce a film in the vein of the films by john hughes richard linklater and cameron crowe and i felt that the script of pitching tents written by rob fox and jayme petrille had a lot of those qualities it s zany and fun but it has a lot of heart the story follows danny played by michael grant who is graduating high school and doesn t know what to do with the rest of his life he goes on a camping trip weekend with his friends where he meets alison played by samantha basalari who helps him uncover his true destiny the film is hilarious and a bit raunchy with help from comedian jim norton who plays our wacky guidance counselor mr mulligan yet it has a lot of heart and i m all about a movie with heart since it s set in 1984 i knew we could have fun with the soundtrack and i can say after 9 months of searching and locking in music we have an amazing 80s soundtrack including tracks from run dmc the plimsouls big country billy squier xtc red rockers missing persons icicle works and more check out our poster by hillary gronvold we finished editing pitching tents in 2016 and decided to work with the company quiver on a vod release and put together our own theatrical run this was a huge undertaking as well i always say that 50 of making a film is marketing it and pitching tents has proven that philosophy to be very true we spent about 4 months doing the theatrical our director jacob cooney and the rest of us spent weeks hitting up theaters and getting the film booked and after all that grit and perseverance we played more than 20 cities including la and nyc and for a small indie film that s pretty darn good we sold out at some screenings and had a ball sharing the film and hearing lots of laughter what a joy to hear an audience laughing throughout your film that is what we filmmakers live for and now pitching tents is available on a number of vod platforms including amazon itunes google play vudu directtv comcast vubiquity sony playstation and it will be released on dvd on august 22nd we re over the moon about the future of the film i hope you check it out cut to my other film 20 weeks one of my creative collaborators leena pendharkar is a very talented writer director she and i love working together and when she decided to write a script loosely based on her own experience about a young couple who finds out that their baby may have a genetic issue at their 20 week scan i was on board immediately to produce many parents like leena and her husband go through this scary experience of hearing tough news at the 20 week scan and they re often left to bear the weight of the news alone they suffer in silence for weeks on end worrying about their baby s health and being tested on a weekly basis never really knowing the full extent of their baby s condition and to add to the uncertainty there are laws throughout the u s that make the journey of figuring out the best path forward even more difficult with 20 weeks leena and i wanted to explore the effects genetic testing can have on a family and spark conversations about women s rights and the very personal decision making process of dealing with a pregnancy in crisis thanks to leena s husband ameet mehta for the beautiful poster we made 20 weeks on a wing and a prayer we never knew if we would have enough money or support but miraculously everything fell into place and we were able to film and complete the film within a year we took part in the amazing us in progress program through the american film festival in poland and we are now having our world premiere screening at the los angeles film festival on this monday night june 19th at 7p at the culver city arclight tickets should still be on sale here leena and me on the red carpet cut to additionally i am so honored to be a producer on a new documentary on pro surfer bethany hamilton titled bethany hamilton unstoppable another producing partner of mine penny edmiston and i have been working really hard to find projects that speak to the kinds of films we want to be making those with strong women at the helm and those about people who inspire and that is what this documentary is all about we have been working the past few months in post on this incredible new film by surf cinematographer aaron lieber bethany is such an inspiration and beautiful person and talented athlete i can t wait to share her story of all of her amazing accomplishments since her shark attack more than a decade ago you will be blown away i am love our powerful poster by hillary gronvold cut to and i am in pre production on a beautiful new film titled epiphany we start filming next month in tarpon springs florida i am really looking forward to this production it s super ambitious just like all of my other ultra low budget films i have a compulsion for taking on the most ambitious films with little to no resources it may be an illness i think but i keep doing it there s nothing quite like having a gazillion locations and actors on a small budget but i just love supporting projects by up and coming filmmakers who put their heart and soul into their work i feel compelled to help their visions become a reality the story of epiphany written and to be directed by sisters koula and katina sossiadis is so beautiful about a young girl who tries to connect with her biological father who is a greek sponge diver off the coast of florida i m stressed out of course because every film production is hard with the million things you have to do and think about but it s important to enjoy the journey along the way a beautiful image for epiphany and that s what i m setting out to do i m enjoying the journey of my life and career and pinching myself each day that i can honestly say that i m doing what i love and i m living my dream the key to it all has been to never give up and embrace that you are on the right path for you here s to living your dreams everyone see you at the movies xoxo posted by janekk at 9 33 am no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels 20 weeks bethany hamilton unstoppable epiphany pitching tents friday june 10 2016 our new movie 20 weeks begins production we are two days into production on our new film we are filming in los angeles and it s awesome to be home making a movie though the permit process in la is intense and most locations require a fee for use it s nice to be able sleep in my own bed at night i am producing leena pendharkar s new feature film titled 20 weeks leena and i have been creating content together for a few years now remember our so natural tv shoots and with the support of a number of people such as our executive producer renuka pullat who has been key to making this shoot possible and those contributing to our 20 weeks indiegogo campaign we have been able to greenlight leena s second feature 20 weeks dp daud sani and writer director leena pendharkar the script was inspired by leena s own experience in the summer of 2014 as i was pregnant with my second daughter and making my short film dandekar makes a sandwich my daughter was diagnosed with a serious issue health issue at the 20 week scan called micrognathia in which the baby s chin is undersized my husband and i were just shocked as it seemed to come out of nowhere the doctors knew the measurements weren t coming out right but they couldn t definitively diagnose what she had or what the issue might be when she was born we had to undergo genetic testing and we also were forced to come in and do sonograms every couple of weeks to make sure her growth was on a typical curve it was a very difficult experience so many thoughts were going through my head my daughter was born in october of 2014 with a serious but treatable health condition called pierre robin sequence we didn t know exactly what her prognosis would be when she was in utero but the doctors had given us a range from not being able to breathe at all and having to wear tubes in her neck for two years to something as mild as not being able to breastfeed me and my husband told no one we were going through this i think we were in shock and both of us on some level were hoping it was nothing but when she was born all of the in utero testing prepared us to be ready we gave birth at a major trauma hospital with doctors who knew how to treat her condition there was a huge learning curve because we had to learn how to feed her with special bottles and she had to undergo four surgeries that first year was so tough i almost don t know how we made it through going through this experience i was really struck by the marriage of science and ethics and how fragile the balance really is sitting in the room looking at a sonogram the doctors ask you to make decisions that are tough that are not easy and you have to go on faith to move forward the part that was so challenging for us was just not knowing staring at these images of a sonogram that feel like nothing but light and sound and yet it s so much more i am so honored to be producing this heartfelt story we have a phenomenally talented cast and crew here are a few pictures from set showcasing a few of them anna margaret as maya sujata day as ruby anna margaret hollyman and our dp daud sani amir arison as ronan anna margaret hollyman and
