Newsletter February 2015
hello hello!
it’s already the 28th again and I send you our latest update!
As you know we started editing our movie in early February. It was a very emotional week for me. It was filled with many great memories that flared-up. The shootings that happend almost one year ago, were totally diverse and while we immersed in the footage we were suddenly back with Frøviks at the Fijord, with Rainer at archery in the park, with Kjersti in the dance studio, with Glayds on the night walk through Berlin, with KaDe on the houseboat, with Nicky in the crowded Mauerpark and with Ellenbergers under the big old linden tree in the Emmental.
Beautiful pictures - they refresh heart and soul after the gray winter weeks. As different the locations were - one thing remained the same. It was always super exciting to be able to delve into the story of our protagonists ..
And that's it what probably gave me a headache in this first week editing. This uncertainty whether we'll make it possible to bring these stories alive on the screen.
But we talked a lot about the film and the individual elements and it has helped me to get a feeling for the film. And so I arrived back in Switzerland with a good feeling. Because even if we haven’t come so far, as I thought we would, I can feel the film. There is life in these pictures and truth in their stories! You'll see! :)
By the way, the last time someone asked who would have made the film music. It was Patrick. masslevel.com
Write us if you have any questions! info@von-Wurzeln-und-Fluegeln.ch
In the end of March I'll be back in Berlin for a week. From there you will get the next update.
Love,
Marielle & Co.

And on top of all, you catch me on the airport- cause yes, while I’m writing this English version I’m sitting on the airport of Zurich waiting for the plane to Berlin!
Yes! Tomorrow we will start editing the movie! Wohoo! We are so excited and are looking forward to it - finally we can do, what we were hoping for a long time!
And you're right there with us!

***108%***
Dear friends, family and supporters!
I still remember the 10th of September..the morning when we started the crowdfunding ..
I felt sick because I was so nervous!
I couldn’t imagine how we would manage to get this huge amount of money.
Today the 100 days are over! And we've collected over 108%!
WOW! THANK YOU ALL!
I had tears in my eyes as I was watching the last few seconds of the 100days..! What a great honor and encouragement that you support us!
At the same time it is also a responsibility for us! You have expressed your trust and we will do our best to make an inspiring film.
In order to keep you updated where we’re at, I'll send you a monthly newsletter.
The next big milestone for us as crew is the first week in February. I will be going to Berlin and we begin to edit the long version of the documentary. Until then, I'm off to transcribe the footage and to prepare a first draft of a concept to work with.
We are thrilled and excited!
And you - you’re in the front row and will get news and the chance to sneak peek!
But first we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
x Marielle Wittwer
ps: The picture gives an overview of the countries in which our trailer has been watched. In over 55 nations.

100% - the starting signal!!!
Hello my friends!
I don’t know if you've noticed it already..
..but we have GOOD NEWS!
We have reached the 15’000 CHF! A HUNDRED PERCENT!
AAAWESOMEEE!!
We are completely overwhelmed, how many generous people have boosted us, and thereby encouraged and motivated us tremendously!
So thie means: the starting signal went off - cause this 100% mean that the boosted money will be referred to us in the end of December and that our project can be financed!
Thank you sooo much for YOUR help!
We only needed two-thirds of the 100 days to collect the money. That means the crowdfunding is still on for the coming 32 days.
And there are already some who have used that!! great!
Cause of course we do not 'just' the need 15'000 CHF. Every Franken helps us on the way to finish the Film.
With the 15'000 CHF all previous costs are covered and it gives us a starting capital to beginn editing the long version of the documentary.
Not even mentioned color correction, film music, mix, animations and marketing.. :)
Whoever reads these lines and would also like to be a part of the project can - because the film will come true and there are still enough deals to choose from!
I'm on my way to Berlin to celebrate with Stella and Thomas!
I'll send you a picture of it! :)
greetings from the airport!

In our crowdfunding project it is the other way around:
At the end of the money still so many days left. :D
Wow! We reached over 94% of the amount!!!
We are overwhelmed!!! You’ve surprised us tremendously and impressed us with your generosity. Thank you!
Although there are only 5.9% open, everybody still has the chance to become a part of it. That means we’re still very happy about each supporter .. :)

Little strokes fell big oaks
Three weeks have passed and already 32 supporters became part of the film project „of roots and wings".
In over 42 countries the trailer has been watched 987 times.
And with the next 212 Swiss Francs, we will soon reach one third of the total amount.
What a joy! :)
I'm always happy to get feedback of what the trailer has inspired you to.
So my godmother eg. detected a whole list of questions for herself.
I have copied them for you as an inspiration.
»Where are the roots of a person, under what conditions can they grow, what soil provides support?
What drives people to move, to travel, to get to know other cultures? What hinders us to fly and what brings wind beneath our wings?
Is home a place or a feeling? What’s the difference between dreams, wishes and reality? What is random and what is desired or planned?
What do these questions have to do with happiness or freedom? Do we need more philosophy?«
How did the trailer inspire you?
I hope that one day we would have the opportunity to discuss what the trailer and the theme triggers in you.
(maybe we already did..as I wrote earlier, I only know in 79 days who gets this newsletter .. :)
all the best!

What a start!
Hello dear all!
This salutation is perhaps a little surprising, since I do not know who has subscribed to the newsletter yet..(I’ll know after the 100days..)
But that you receive these lines as a newsletter are reason enough for me!
I am deeply grateful and overwhelmed about the many positive reactions and especially your financial boost! What an encouragement!
..I was so nervous when we started the Crowdfuning and couldn’t hardly eat all day ..but now I'm very happy cause I realized that people are touched by the trailer!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR GENEROSITY!
