"Automatic Music" - A Short Film
By Florence Kennard

Good afternoon!  I'm making a short film about mechanical music!
I'm a 27-year-old London-based film maker specialising in short
documentary, and I make films working specifically with collections
of objects and the people who collect them.  Please, please, please
take a look at my Kickstarter page:

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/897162780/automatic-music-a-short-film 

You can watch the video to get an idea of who I am and what I'm
doing.  Then if you like the sound of it please help out if you can.
This is a unique project and I'm reaching out to all of you, as
enthusiasts of mechanical music, to help me reach the funding goal.
I'm trying to raise £1,200, which believe me is utterly nothing in
the scheme of film budgets.  But with a crew working for free, and a
lot of love, time and borrowing of equipment we can make this happen!

This money is crucial to get the project completed.  So if you can
spare some change -- there are rewards such as personalised thank
you, a DVD copy of the finished film, executive producer credits and
more.  And of course I will be posting updates of how the project's
going so you can follow my progress, my trip to Switzerland, and the
editing process.

The most important thing to note is, if I don't reach the funding goal
within 30 days, I won't receive any of the donations, so please, please
help out if you can!

If you have any questions please feel free to email me directly at
florencekennard@gmail.com.geentroep [delete ".geentroep" to reply]

Thanks so much!

Florence Kennard

 [ I enjoyed the short promotional video on Kickstarter.  I think this
 [ will be an interesting production and I'm pleased to be the first
 [ backer of this project.   I hope others will pitch in so that
 [ Florence will be able to produce this "film".   --Jody

 [ P.S.  I have never participated as a backer of a Kickstarter
 [ project before.   Signing up is easy.  Florence mentioned that she
 [ doesn't get any of the donations unless the goal is met.  In fact,
 [ no one's credit card gets charged unless the pledge goal is met.
