Thankful. Thank you.

Jon here...
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving here in the U.S.
And it's got me thinking.  
Earlier this year I did a post on my page thanking everyone who has been a part of Elmwood Productions over the past 15 years.  I'm sure I forgot a few names, and I'm sorry if it was yours!  Let me know and I'll fix that!
I don't want to re-hash anything here that's already there...
So this post is for our fans...

And I know I can speak on behalf of all of us at Elmwood Productions in saying we are truly thankful for you.  You're the people watching our shorts on YouTube, renting our films on Vimeo/VHX, following us on Instagram, Facebook, and so on...
You're the ones coming to screenings in weird art galleries, breweries, and anywhere that we can set up a screen...  
You're the ones asking what's next?  And jumping in on the crowdfunding...   
You're the ones making this more than just a hobby, but a way of life.
This year, after 15 years of doing this we need to say thank you, to you.

Thank you...  From the deepest parts of my heart, and from the rest of the Elmwood gang, thank you.  We're thankful to have you there!

We spent this year wrapping up and screening "The Risley Brothers", shooting some new shorts, and even shot a whole new web-series that you'll be seeing soon called "Animal Behavior"!  You were there for it, making those screenings a success and always asking "What's next!?"  
Well, we're looking forward to an amazing 2018.  Can't wait to show you what we've been cooking all year!

Where Is Elmwood?!?!

No, we're not closed!!!  No need to get lost!
You may have noticed we haven't been flooding social media with news of screenings, events, and any new projects since our screening in mid- August!
And you may notice a lack of madness coming from us over the next month or so as well...
Don't worry one bit!  
We're actually hard at work on the next project, and it will be popping up sooner than you may think!

We also want to take a moment to thank everyone involved in this past summer's series of screenings for "The Risley Brothers"! You made it a success! 
And don't worry if you missed any of them! The show is available on VHX now to rent or purchase! Things may get a little quiet over here for a little while, but do not worry! We're just working hard on the next production!
