UPDATE: $15,000 in 30 Days - Upstate LA Film Fest Premiere

Upstate's Kickstarter campaign was a success and Upstate is on it's way to the Los Angeles Film Festival!! Over $15,000 was raised in just 30 days, that's crazy. Congrats to Kate & Drew and thanks to everyone that donated.

From LAFF:

"A sun-dappled portrait of the shifting dynamics of personal relationships, past and present, Katherine Nolfi and Andrew Luis’ fever dream of the road not taken beautifully unites personal desire with an idyllic setting. Still coping with the death of her mother, Liz decides to break her self-imposed isolation by visiting Steve, an old friend she has not seen in years who is now married and living in rural upstate New York. What begins as a simple reunion, however, grows more complicated as Liz’s presence reignites long forgotten emotions in this thoughtful rumination on the regrets of the past and the possibility for change."

Here's the official trailer:

UPSTATE To Premiere at the Los Angeles Film Festival

My friends Katherine Nolfi & Andrew Luis' first feature film UPSTATE will world premiere at this years' Los Angeles film festival. But it needs your help.

UPSTATE is seeking funding to add the finishing touch for it's world premiere. Head on over to Kickstarter to watch the trailer and find out how you can help out.

UPSTATE was shot over 14 days with a bare bones crew of friends. We strove to make the shoot as open and collaborative as possible. So many people gave so much to this film. Why not join them?

Every contribution level will receive an incentive, from an official UPSTATE DVD to a thank you in the film's credits.

And at the $100 level you will receive an official 8x10 black and white print of one of my stills from the UPSTATE shoot.

And check out more of my pics from the set of UPSTATE below.



Thanks for your support of a truly independent film.
