Greetings from Gettysburg!
The books were, once again, updated. But just the book covers and my author photo. https://thememoirsofsummerray.com/the-summer-ray-books-authors-point-of-view/. This was at the direction of a graphic designer. One small change, allowed me to fixed two other books. I am thinking this is it for now. I believe at some point, the book covers will have limited edition covers with the actors from the pilot film and episodes.
We are now working on the promo/teaser trailer. This picture is of Summer Ray and her Deaf son, Billy via CHATgpt.
There is no use of AI in the story, book covers, or script. But the trailer will have AI to bring the story to life. The photos will be professionally done to where they will look like a video, showing movement. I cannot wait to see the finished video. At max, it will be 2.5 minutes. Then the work on fundraising will begin. I am steadily working on perks for the fundraiser. I am thinking the new fundraiser via our fiscal sponsor From the Heart Productions will be ready by November, at the latest December. What is so great about FTH, all donations are tax deductible. I will also add a donate button on the website. I am still working on getting Harbor Love Productions as an LLC and the new bank account. That is a must for the fundraiser to start.
We are steadily working on our goals to reach by December 31st. The Author Media Kit will definitely be finished. But I am, at this point, not so sure about the Pitch Deck, or those writing classes. The trailer and the fundraiser have taken priority. So, will see how fast things progress. The good news is that we are making progress. To have the trailer professionally done, is so exciting. Of course, I had to make it a priority. I can’t wait to see it finished. 🙂 We also have an amazing Deaf consultant who will be helping us with signing. This is to make sure we are correct and authentic. There will only be Deaf actors in the role of Billy. I say actors, because he grows up throughout the story.
Till the next update…
Thank you for being a part of our Summer Ray world.
