A Note From The Director...

Dear donors and supporters of Breakaway,

I am writing to share updates with you regarding Breakaway production. Last weekend (November 11-13), we successfully completed the film's principal photography in New York City. The shoot, as you can imagine, was incredibly stressful but exuberating at the same time. I was lucky to be surrounded by an incredible group of people who put their 100% into getting this story on screen. I learned so much and, for the first time, I feel I earned the right to call myself a director.

Now, we are onto the process of post-production, which will include editing, color correcting, sound mixing, and music scoring. It is my goal to have the final cut done by March. In the meantime, we will keep you posted with more blog entries, production stills, and an upcoming exclusive "Making-of."

Once again, I wanted to express my sincere thanks for all your support in making this film and I can't wait to share it with you.

Thank you,
Ivan Bukta
