Summer 23' Documentary Update

!  Summer Lovin' ! 

Dear fans and patrons for the films about Patrick Scully, 

I hope y'all are enjoying the heat and are gearing up for Pride. I really hope we will be showing The Dance Is Not Over to everyone at Pride 2024! Let's manifest it! We continue to edit at Film HQ. The editor Dan of Jagged Edge and I are getting close to sending a version off to the sound composer. When they receive it, he'll start making an original score for the film. We will continue to edit supporting images, we call that B-roll and doing other tweaks behind the scenes.

Your donations to Gofundme and our fiscal sponsor last Spring and from the Fall fundraiser continue to fund this work. Thank you to Matthew for your $50 donation! Everyone's generosity has been validating and vital to keep
this project going!

Above, you can see a screenshot of the editing window. Here we are looking at the Shinders to Shinders film that Patrick was its' choreographer. It's one of the many signature works we are focusing on.

Other things I have been up to is, doing research for the film at the Patrick Scully archive. It is housed in the University of MN's Tretter Collection. (RIP Jean) It was just last Pride that Patrick, Kevin and I saw Jean in the parade on Hennepin. He was looking old but in this fabulous convertible.

Jean did so much to preserve and protect the GLBTQ history in MN and the country. Here is a link to more info about the archive.

I am still looking for an intern for this project, if you are interested in documentary film or know someone who is, pls contact me.

I hope you have a great time at Pride this year and a fab summer!
