I've continued research on Fanny's story, and ran across a series of letters by Pawtucket's 12 year olds lobbying to either keep or give away their beloved elephant.
Now, I'm a sucker for kiddies reading stuff in movies, just as I am for archival footage (of which I am luck enough to have a bunch for this film). So I'd like to shoot a bunch of kids reading these letters into the camera. No costumes needed- it was 1993, after all, and the readers all need to be around 12 years old. Before I put the call out to the general public, I thought I'd ask the readers of this blog to contact me if they know/have any children who would be interested and available to read a letter for me. It would only take about 20 minutes or so, and I'll do all the readings in a day.
Thanks

Trailer!
At last! The moment everyone has been waiting for!
The trailer for Fanny (Uproar in Pawtucket) is done! You can see it at our indiegogo site (http://igg.me/p/29594?a=3933&i=shlk) or on youtube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDpym4XGQSg
Please let your friends, neighbors, and local librarians and barkeepers know about this. Fanny was so special, and since this is the year of the elephant in media, it would be a shame to let it go by unnoticed.
Thanks!

We're live!
It's been an exciting month with Genevieve in the producer's seat. Here are the highlights-
We now have a facebook page (go to "Uproar in Pawtucket" at facebook and "like" us...).
We're on twitter at @uproarpawtucket.
And we are live on indiegogo.com ("Uproar in Pawtucket")!
This crowdfunding site gives everyone a chance to be part of the project! For contributions from $10 up, you can get any number of perks, from postcards and updates, to credits, dvds, private production clips, and invitations to our premiere party. Though the site just gives the bottom line of each increment, you can help us with any amount and we'll love you to death.
I have the trailer almost finished and you'll be able to see it both here and on the indiegogo site as soon as possible.
We're really working hard on bringing the story of Fanny to a wider audience than Roger because it says so much about elephants and our love for them, and what to do with an old elephants when a zoo closes. Please tell everyone you know about the project, and, as usual, share your stories and pictures of Fanny or the Slater Park Zoo with us.
Don't forget- our new email address is- elephantsinri@gmail.com
