The film is about mountain biking but I figured there might be some interest or some people who want to help me out. Right now I am working on fundraising and awareness raising, so check out the sites. If you are interested in helping, or riding (you have to be in the east coast because that is where I am filming) either pm me or hit up the email (ridelocalfilm@gmail.com). I am also trying to figure out what to do about a camera because all I own right now is a gopro and a DSLR that doesn't do video. If your interested in helping let me know, thanks!

canon t2i, 60d, or 7d with a glidecam most definitely (if you are willing to spend that much)

Yeah any of those would be great, however I don't a big budget right now. I am gonna try to get a camera from my school, or sell my current one and upgrade something with video If you know anyone who would be interested in donating to the cause though send them here http://http://www.indiegogo.com/Ride-Local. But right now just spreading the word is helpful too.

Past work? That usually helps when asking people for money.

Good point, well I am a design arts student at Lehigh University these are some shorts I worked on over the ski season, (although I am mostly skiing in them). http://vimeo.com/22220538, http://vimeo.com/19103805, http://vimeo.com/17866610, http://vimeo.com/14367045. Also I worked on a couple of projects in high school (won a silly award for one) but these are some projects I helped out on, http://vimeo.com/5365222, http://vimeo.com/5332430. Also I do still photography and I can post some examples of that as well. This project is going to have a lot more time for editing and also if you are worried about giving money, or can't just spreading the word and sparking more interest helps me out a lot.
Thanks!

Well I am glad to hear interest even if you cant come out, if this goes well this summer perhaps I could do something out west next summer, but again if you wanna help just try and help me get the word out.
