The Santa Lucia community themselves are important contributors to making the DVD. They are providing room and board for the duration of the stay as well as various supplies.

However, the bulk of the project is not yet funded. This includes equipment (other than our own Sony PD150 DV Cameras), tape stock, travel, insurance and editing amongst other things.

We await news of a number of grants, and are also exploring the possibility of obtaining donations of equipment and travel from a number of companies. So far we have confirmed sponsorship from KTS (Southampton), Reinhardt-Film, and Jessops (Isle of Wight).

UPDATE: March 2005. We are very pleased to have been awarded a Screen South grant towards post production on this film. See our News Page for more details.

If you think you or your company may be able to help in any way, please contact Martha or Keira.

Our thanks to:

KTS - The UK's leading supplier of equipment bags for the film and television production industry.

Jessops - Photographic and DV camera equipment.

Reinhardt-Film - Suppliers and manufacturers of quality microphone windshields and video production accessories.

Screen South - Regional Screen Agency for the South of England.
