NETA DISTRIBUTION AND MORE...UNDERWRITER CAMPAIGN
Have you ever heard the PBS credit before the program, "Made possible by support from.......(Fill in name) and viewers like you?" WELL, THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO HAVE THAT CREDIT FOR LEVELING LINCOLN! YES, we have been accepted into the Programming Program of NETA, The National Educational Telecommunications Association
https://www.netaonline.org/education/educational-programming. NETA has a network of over 350 local public TV stations they pitch media to, and we are now in their fold. This means we can seek out underwriters - perhaps YOU - who want their family name or institution in a "Made possible" credit. NETA requires us to cut our film down to 58 minutes, which means re-editing and re-mixing the sound, and minimizing all the credits. But Underwriters will appear at the top of every program, so consider a large gift. Contact us at levelinglincoln@gmail.com to discuss a $3500 donation (or more) towards the creation of the NETA TV Broadcast 58 minute version of Leveling Lincoln and so we can get it out FREE to Local Stations and the PBS Learning App. Many educators use the PBS learning APP for free resources, especially during the pandemic. I know, I am a kindergarten teacher in LAUSD and we all rely on PBS for media. THIS IS A HUGE DEAL and we are very excited. Help us make this PBS version of Leveling Lincoln today.

IN OTHER NEWS, we have had three public screenings in New Rochelle and changed the film every time based on the feedback. We are very proud of our NEW August 2022 full feature cut and will be presenting it at three more festivals in September.
