Help Lost Dog

For almost a week now we have been trying to find a good home for the amazing dog I found and so far nobody seems to love her :(
A couple of us decided that her chances might be better if we get her fixed and make sure she has all current shots.
This collection is set up for Ginger, the pup found in North Hollywood (NoHo) in Los Angeles by the metro station. Please donate anything, even if it is just a dollar.
If you really cannont help, repost this and resend this to all your friends so together we can help her find loving home.



More about Ginger can be found here

If you would like to give her new home, please email at: NoHoDog@gmail.com

I set the deadline for this on September 4th, 2010 because it is my birthday that day and I would like nothing more than do something good for this beautiful girl on that day. This gives us 10 days to share the most out of this event. Please do!

Thank you very much for sharing and thank you for all your help <3

Love,
Ester

La Femme Film Festival Is A Scam

Terrible and expensive place to screen. For the submission fee of $70, you get a room with a couple of chairs and none of your posters nowhere to be seen. We were also “lucky” enough to have our screening scheduled against the opening party of the festival. Needless to say that nobody had any idea we were showing, besides our friends.
Also needless to say, that there was no effort from the festival organizer to put any attention to our film, because our time slot was in competition with the film crew, that paid huge money to the festival publicist.
During the closing ceremony, we struggled to find parking place, because place dedicated to VIP only was not for us. The parking attendant laughed when we asked and said : “Well, are you a celebrity?” Foolish of us to think that since our film was at the festival, we might have been the VIPs. At that point, we were so upset, that we approached the organizer Ms Leslie La Page to find out what exactly happened with our screening, our posters and her festival. She was very busy standing around carrying a baby, I guess her son…
Upon our approach, she started looking very uncomfortable, claiming she is very busy and cannot talk to us. We did mention we emailed her earlier with no feedback. She started getting more upset, looking for any way out. We left. We didn’t bother to attend award ceremony, that was dedicated to people, who paid thousands of dollars to receive her award.
How does this woman sleep at night? Scamming filmmakers of their money, taking their promotional materials and trashing them right away? If this woman is really a mother, I feel very sorry for the children she will raise. Nothing good comes from family of thieves, liars and con artists. Avoid this place if you are a serious filmmaker. If you film is no good, this place might be a great for you, because for few thousand $, you can buy attention, great screening time, publicity and award. No respect though. That you can only buy with good film.

Final evaluation:
Price: expensive
Perks: some if you have extra $ to pay for them
Media: Ms Leslie has some friends that lent their names to the festival, they are as interested in indie film as I am in farming
Professionalism: appears good until personal contact
Interaction with filmmaker: only with the rich ones

Rating on a scale from 1-10: 3 (at least the “festival” takes place)

Final thought: After receiving emails from other filmmakers that attended La Femme, wanting to stop Ms LaPage from running the festival another year, I realized, that we came out OK. We didn’t pay any additional money besides the submission fee, we didn’t get scammed into her bogus publicist, we didn’t travel across the country to attend this circus. We came out OK, just smarter. Will you?

Butterflies sells to African television

Good-morning Butterflies :)
To take over another continent with our awesome documentary about YouTubers, we have accomplished another sale last week, this time to ZUKU TV in Nairobi, Kenya in Africa.
I am really super excited we are able to show all over the world only one year after our Premiere in Los Angeles. I am also super very excited to see where else we go in the next year coming up.
Eventhough YouTube seems very popular in the USA, Internet video is still in development stages in many parts of the rest of the world and Butterflies is ahead of time in presenting what can be accomplished online.
Thank you for all your support and thank you for sharing this film with your friends.
