 Hello,

My name is Bob Nelson, and I am writing to invite you (and all your friends, and their friends, of course) to come and see our independent film, Sacrifice, on July 30th, 2010 at the Madcap Theaters in Tempe, AZ. We were the crazy booth at the Phoenix Comicon this year with the people that kept asking if you liked Giant Monster Movies.

Well, we finished ours, and in truly independent fashion, we’d like to share it with you.

When, and How Much?
We are doing two showings, one at 7pm and one at 9pm, and we will be having an ongoing reception before and during, where you can meet the actors, ask questions of the crew and get your poster/trading card or whatever else we gave you signed- don’t worry, we’ll have more posters at the show.

While the shows are all ages, you will be wrist banded as there will be “adult beverages” available*.

Tickets for either show are only $5- IF you order them online at Brown Paper Tickets, here:

(I would suggest not waiting until the night of the show, they will be $8 at the door)

You are also welcome to view the page at Madcap’s website here: http://www.madcaptheaters.com/calendar/2010-july-30

A New Trailer Just for You...
We have a couple trailers out there for you to peruse, including a special- Just released this week for you, a trailer at our YouTube page, located here:

Who’s Going To Be There?
Well, I am as the director. Kent Markwart, who did most of the filming will be there, as will Mike Robinson, who did much of the conceptual art, and is working on the Sacrifice Comic. Most all of the actors will be there, but I’ll be updating our twitter/facebook pages with specifics as they come in.

Can’t Come?
Well, if you are unable to attend- then make sure that you join up with one of our many linky places, and we’ll make sure you get the info on ordering a DVD once they are available.

Also, please consider helping us out on another project we are working on, called Subterfuge (apparently, we are big ‘S’ titled people). Subterfuge is going to be a web serial that are looking to shoot this fall and show in January. We are currently using Kickstarter.com to try and raise some funds for some additional equipment, and we have a short teaser video release for it at out Kickstarter page, located here:

If you like what you see, please consider supporting us with a few dollars on that page.

And finally, if you’d like to stay in touch with us, please consider one of these multitude of ways. Out of respect to the fact that you provided us with your email address just to receive this invite, I don’t want to send you messages you don’t want to get obviously.

So, hook up with us...
