Back in London after an intense week of networking and documentaries.

We arrived second at Sheffield Doc/Fest Crowdfunding Pitch, thanks to all of you!
The online vote for Sandgrains was massive (187 votes!), but due to previously unknown rules, the present audience carried more weight.

Thank you all for voting! It showed how much support we have!
We now believe that we can have the film ready to screen at next years festival!

The panel

Walking around Sheffield you can see the city full of the festival's delegates with their pink passes and bags.

2000 international delegates, over 100 documentaries, 70 industry sessions, pitching events, free drinks from the BBC and much more!

Today we are pitching at the Frontline Club's Matchmaking event! The club championing independent journalism in the UK.
A good test to prepare ourselves for the major pitch at the Crowdfunding Day tomorrow.

We finally arrived in Sheffield for the Doc/Fest and are entering the networking world!

We woke up with a nice surprise as we have been also selected to present the film at Frontline's Club Matchmaking Event at the festival. So we will have another opportunity to be on stage to present the project!!!

Tomorrow we leave for Sheffield with butterflies crowding our bellies ahead of the upcoming Crowdfunding Pitch. We compete against four other projects and the vote is decided online at www.cubanhat.tv on Saturday the 11th between 4 and 6 pm. 

Looking forward to a week of intense networking and an abundance of documentaries!
