It will also help to support the grass-roots marketing campaign aimed at engaging the young generation through community events and presentations centered around the film.
You will help us to get the film featured on popular websites and online media outlets that cater to our demographic, specifically the young people and the Hip Hop generation, so that we can "bridge the gap" between the Elders and the Youth. Online promotion will be a heavy focus in our promotional campaign in order to take advantage of the digital technologies now available to independent filmmakers.
