Thanks to Xian for interesting forward. Good timing as I'm getting ready to
head off to Cannes to search for partners for the feature film following
Sanctuary. What do people think?

Hi,


Firstly, apologies for the mass mailout (you are in it because you are on my
contacts list
so we must have had conversations however brief or intimate before now), but
I wanted
to tell you about my latest project news.


I hope you like it (please sign up if you do!). If you are one of the people
in the mailout
who  I've worked with, commissioned, produced,  or promoted in my previous
digital film
activities, then please return the favour and support the project. Thanks to
those who've
already joined the Swarm, and added to the buzz on the Internet for the
project.


Many thanks,

Matt

A Swarm of Angels // Remixing cinema

A Swarm of Angels reinvents the Hollywood model of filmmaking to create
cult cinema for the Internet era.

We want to invent the future of film. Call it Cinema 2.0.


A Swarm of Angels is a project to make a £1 million film and give it
away to 1 million people in 1 year. The movie will be 'open source',
using the flexible digital-age copyright of Creative Commons so people
can freely download, share, and remix the feature film.


The project is conceived and directed by Brighton-based digital film
pioneer, Matt Hanson. It will be funded and developed with the help of
50,000 Angels joining the Swarm, to offer feedback, expertise, and
subscribing to the project (£25) to finance its execution.

ASOA triggered the second round of Swarm memberships on Friday evening
to push membership from 100+ to the 1000 mark. We have over a third of the
way to reaching this target, and are closing in fast. At our current sign up
rate
we will close membership for this development phase within 7-14 days.


If you want to join the Swarm and support a groundbreaking film project,
please sign up now.
