El Caffinato Gets a Camera Crew!

Well, it's been a week now since we lasted posted anything about El Caffinato, but that's certainly not because we don't have anything to announce. We'll in the full-on blitz leading up to the shoot, and each day brings noteworthy news.

One incredibly exiting piece of news is that Nic Beery of Carrboro's Beery Media has signed on to the project as cinematographer, bringing along Nathan Rosenquist as gaffer and GlideCam operator and David Parent as camera assistant. Beery Media has been producing films and videos for over 20 years, including an Emmy-nominated PSA, and their films have been shown at festivals from Cannes to New York to Fiji. Needless to say, we are thrilled to have such an amazing camera crew for El Caffinato, and now we really can't wait to see how it's going to look. Check out Nic's films, and also consider contributing to Nic's current Kickstarter campaign, "Sayonara to Hello." He is making a documentary with Steve Marshall, who has been living his dream as a magician in Japan since 1998, and is now returning to the states for a performance and lecture tour. We've talked with Nic about it, and it's a really awesome project - they're so close to their goal, so please think about whether you might be able to help them out!

In addition to this amazing crew, we've got a great cast signed on to the project as well. We're in rehearsals with them now, and we will post something about them all in more detail soon.

Throughout the post-production stage, which is rapidly approaching, we will be posting previews of the music, stills from the film, and some more promotional materials to get you psyched for when the film is released. Stay tuned!
