For those of you wondering how the cut of Standing Firm is coming along (the cut shown to him was Cut #3, we’re now in Cut #4), why don’t you ask Matt C. from Akron, NY…
“The new movie Standing Firm is an above average piece, including something for prayer-warriors, the hard-working man, or a college student struggling to do what is what is right in the middle of adversity. You will walk away from the film understanding that life, although sometimes unpleasant, can still be wonderful in Christ Jesus our Lord. The story is real, the people are authentic, and the ending will surprise viewers. Standing Firm is a movie that exemplifies a Christ-like journey of faith when the name of Jesus is explicitly mentioned, and when it isn’t. There are many new movies bearing the name of Jesus Christ, but very few depict the reality of a life with Christ in the way Standing Firm does.”
Thanks goes out to Matt for his warm comments!
The cut continues to be refined every week as things are tightened and decisions are made. The film is looking much better since Cut #3 and I’m much happier with the overall quality of some of the scenes. Much has happened this summer to me personally that has God teaching me patience, this area of my life especially. We’re just moving along slowly and trying to figure out what we should do distribution wise with this film. As most of you know, we can’t really finish this film on our own, as we can’t pay for a score or sound mix currently. There are options we have, but none are 100% and patience is key. This film is at a crossroads, but rest assured, I’m doing what I can to make sure my side of things isn’t slacking.
Pray for the film, and its future.
