The movie ‘Voicings’ has been shot and we are now in the last stages of editing, for sound, color correction, and marketing, all of which costs money.  The footage in the rough cut looks great!

We’ve had good reviews from those involved in the review of the rough cut.  There may some minor changes but we are on our way.  If anyone would like to be a part of the team that helps make this project a success we welcome any donations. Small and large donations really help.  We need to raise about $6,000 to complete the project so it will be ready to debut at the Affirmation Conference.

In the wake of Proposition 8, we believe this is a very timely project.  Douglas, a man in his mid to late fifties, living a double live, is searching for the strength to be honest with himself and the people closest to him.  He is entrenched in the machine of society and Mormonia. These are the same struggles all gay men and lesbian women feel that  live repressed lives because of the difficulties of having honest discussions of diversity and human rights and that make the coming out process so difficult.  Keep the discussion going.

Stephen Williams, the writer and director of “Blessing” an independent short film that has won awards world wide in film festivals, is making another short film intitled “Voicings”. Stephen discribes the film saying, “‘Voicings’ portrays the results of sexual repression, depicting the double lives of men who are unable to express who they are in the light of day. It is an intimate look at Douglas, the central character, who yearns to become free from the prison created both by himself and his society/church.” More information will be available in the October Issue of “Affinity” and at the Affirmation Conference 2008 in Los Angeles CA.
