I’m always excited when I hear about new ways for filmmakers to get their films produced.
My friend Vladimir Versailles is trying to win funding for his film from Pepsi’s Good Idea program. Please take a moment to review his information and vote at:

“The concept for my film started in 2008. I was barraged with stories of random acts of violence and misfortunes affecting people with whom I grew up with. I would hear stories former classmates serving jail time, gunned down for drug money, and living in harsh economic conditions. I saw a Philadelphia Inquirer newspaper headline that read “Killadelphia”. It was nationally reported in 2007-2009 that Philadelphia was the murder capitol of the U.S. and that most of the murder victims were youth, between the ages of 13-23. For this Film, we want to inspire the people who see it to understand this crisis and even take action about the problems – in this case the anguish and tragedy of youth killing youth. I want my film Killadelphia to illuminate the deepest secrets and bleeding wounds of Philadelphia. This is our time and our shot to make a mark that will never be erased for the city and the people that made us the artists we are today!”
