As many of you may know from reading the last blog entry or by checking out any of our socials, the #LoveandVodkaMovie is in post-production, and more specifically, we have started a GoFundMe to raise funds for the finalization of the film. Among other things, these funds will be going towards color correction as well as sound post.
In my opinion, it becomes clear how much cinema relies on sound, especially in its absence. This I have realized while watching the initial drafts of the film, but also through other films that I have seen recently. The clearest example of this is in The Boy and the Heron, a 2023 release from the legend Hayao Miyazaki. This film has a lot of magical qualities, from the illustration and animation to the beautiful foley art and soundtrack. The sound design is really beautiful, allowing the audience, well at the very least me, to be transported into the world within the film. Although Love and Vodka is not in the same vein as The Boy and the Heron, I hope it can become a film that produces a similar magical experience. All the best for now, and please consider donating to our GoFundMe! Sincerely, Love and Vodka Intern, Sophie

привіт (Hello) Everyone!
We've got our #GoFundMe page up and running and hope you will consider taking a look, watching our #teasertrailer and sharing to spread the good word. As we near the finish line of the overall creative process, having transitioned from production to post, we need to go into #crowdfunding mode one more time to pay for everything. But we always like to make it fun and so there are going to be cool videos and updates for you to read along the way. Thanks so much and see you on the other side, hopefully -- in the cinema! Best, Heidi Producer/Director Once upon a time, there was a high school film teacher who’s dream was to be a screenwriter and see his stories on the #bigscreen He wrote a script based upon a real life experience - the trip he took to #ukraine to visit his girlfriend’s family when he was in his 20s. The script waited to be made into a movie… and waited… and waited. Time passed. Over ten years. And then the high school teacher heard about a parent of a student at his school who was a #producer and #director of #indiefilms He decided to take a chance and reach out. That was in the year #2017 One pandemic, Russian attacks on Ukraine, a film industry union strike and seven years later, and this little film that could is in #postproduction And though the Final Cut of @loveandvodkamovie won’t be exactly like the original story of R.J. Fox's @foxwriter7 ‘s #script , his work inspired its heart and spirit for adventure. Producer/Director/Writer @heidiphilipsen is running the proverbial baton to the finish line and aims to craft a #movie that #delights #moves and #inspires - with a #cast of #ukrainian #actors and #michiganders who will most certainly entertain! #followus for #news and #updates on #future #screenings and #filmfestival run information. #ukraine #universityofmichigan @uofm_alumni #baycity #ypsilanti #annarbor @personaeentertainment #screenwriters #womeninfilm #filmteachersmakingfilms @uofmichigan @easternmichigan #ukrainiansinmichigan Hey everybody!
