Greetings from Aubin Pictures!
JULY/AUGUST ISSUE
Welcome to the JULY/AUGUST Updatefor
"What's On Your Plate?"
- a provocative documentary about kids and food politics.
A warm welcome to VAN JONES (eco-visionary, author, human rights attorney) who has joined our Advisory Council.
Chicken and Egg Pictures, a pioneer in the
world of women and independent filmmaking, has awarded us a generous
grant. This funding comes at a crucial time... as we have just begun
editing!
We are excited to be partnering with Working Films to strategize about
the interactive, web-based component of our outreach campaign. Our goal
is to create an online presence that uses the methods (games, quizzes,
avatars) of the corporate food industry but for the completely
different aim of getting (and keeping) kids healthy.
And thank you to our excellent individual donors who have contributed
this month. We are always seeking funding for the film and outreach
project, so let us know if you'd like to help.

Happy Summer to you all!
