Gregory Bayne has just posted a new update: "24 Hours to go!"
http://www.kickstarter.com/e/feMyQ/projects/gregorybayne/jens-pulver-driven-a-documentary-film-about-a-le/posts/6244?show_token=7c6bca113b25c273

24 Hours to go!

Wow! As of today at 3pm we are 341 backers strong, $22,877 pledged, and $2,123 left to raise to meet our funding goal of $25,000!

I am so appreciative to all of you. Thank you for taking the time to engage with this project, to contribute, and to spread the word about it. Because of you, I feel very confident that we will reach our goal.

That said, I am not doing any victory laps yet. The final $2,123 left to raise may seem small in comparison to what we have accomplished thus far, but it is still a large gap to close in these remaining 24 hours.

The momentum has been amazing today, and I ask that you please stick with me just a little longer to keep it going. Don't let up spreading the word, talking it up, and sharing the link! We are very close, but still need to cross that finish line. Let's finish strong!

You all have my deep appreciation. Thank you for taking part in bringing Jens's story to the screen.

Gregory

Jack & the Bean Stock project idea

noreply@blogger.com (Rhea Allen, Peppershock Media) — Sat, 30 Jan 2010 19:28:00 +0000

We started painting last weekend to let it dry, finished the project this morning:

We used
-a paper towel roll and half a TP roll for the bean stock,
-tissue paper for leaves, glue
-TP rolls for the castle, stapples & tape
-a shoe box,
-paint: green, blue and black
-construction paper for the house & castle windows, door and flag and for Jack
- a Pipe cleaner for the flag pole,
-stuffing for the clouds, glue
-string for Jack to "climb" the bean stock
-markers to draw Jack

Now after lunch we're heading over to the Nampa Public Library to check out the book so they get the full Fe Fi Fo Fum story!

We also get to take a bunch of blankets, towels, two tents and a few other things over to Mission Aviation near the Nampa airport to help load the relief container headed over to Haiti on Feb. 1st.

Happy Saturday! :)

In With The Good At Starbucks

noreply@blogger.com (Rhea Allen, Peppershock Media) — Wed, 13 Jan 2010 06:29:00 +0000

I'm always curious to see how others make their enews, since we create so many for our clients, just thought I'd share Starbucks' eNews, very clean & simple. What I really like though is the verbiage they use to get you to click to learn more or to read more... not just the usual "click here" to read more idea but the inset arrow with the hyperlink with words like "explore our foods" or learn more about these beverages" or "Get the goods on these new teas" I really like that approach instead of the typical overused and non-enticing or non-inviting "click here to learn more" approach. It's like a mini headline leading you into a whole world of discovery, a call to action but not so blatant and usual.
I also like the easy links to the various social media sites, a very common thing to do that is becoming expected now.

BTY Starbucks is not my favorite coffee b/c it tastes burnt to me, but I like this eNews they sent me! (:
