Now that we’ve completed principal photography and started editing the 300 odd hours of material we’ve gathered, it’s all about fundraising and fundraising and more fundraising. We shot the film on a shoestring budget; but now it’s time to tell the story, and we’re doing everything we can to raise the money we need to edit and complete a great film.
So we were overjoyed when we got word last week that the Woody Guthrie Foundation has awarded 1913 Massacre a grant in support of our post-production work. The Foundation has been an enthusiastic supporter of our project from day one, in every imaginable way. We’re grateful to the board for seeing and understanding the promise of our film.
And we also owe a debt of gratitude to the labor organizations who continue to support our work because they want the story of 1913 and the story of UP labor told.
