ReelChanges.org Soft Launches

Friday, May 09 2008 @ 09:32 AM EDT

Hal Plotkin's been making the rounds with his new site for documentary filmmakers, ReelChanges.org. The site asks the public for donations for user submitted project ideas, which could result in a new funding mechanism for documentarians. He must be on to something, because the site proudly displays this quote from the legendary Ken Burns:

ReelChanges provides a more modern set of tools and methods to build public awareness and crucial support for the documentary arts.

Site development was outsourced to developers in India, so you can expect some funny text to pop up here and there. This is the message you see today when you hit any of the buttons:

The button you just clicked on doesn't work yet because this site is still in pre-start up mode. Please read this note if you make documentary films or care about documentary films.
