Very Semi-Serious, Leah Wolchok and Davina Pardo’s film in progress about New Yorker cartoonists has a week left in its Kickstarter campaign to raise $75,000. At the moment it’s about $14,000 short of its goal.
Speaking as a New Yorker cartoonist and a participant in the film, but mostly as a fan of New Yorker cartoons, I’m hoping the Kickstarter campaign is a success and that we’ll all be able to enjoy the completed film in 2014.
Here are a few links to recent posts on Very Semi-Serious:
From Co.Create, “Kickstarting: This documentary About ‘New Yorker’ Cartoonists Does Not Require a Monocle”
From folioweekly, “Filmmaker Focuses on New Yorker Cartoons”
And here’s the Ink Spill post from April 18th of this year, with Ms. Wolchok talking about the film.
