Day 56 - PASTE MAGAZINE

I sat around a square table today with some of the Whitestone crew at PASTE Magazine to meet with editors about an upcoming project. I am so grateful to be surrounded by such talent continually and am proud to announce that we have the green light for our next film!! Here is the statement we at Whitestone released

Whitestone Motion Pictures in association with PASTE Magazine is proud to announce it’s next short film project called “Lest We Forget”.


This civil war action short is being created as a donation to Paste Magazine in support of their “Campaign to Save Paste,” which is rallying together the artistic community in order to raise money to save the independent and innovative magazine. The film is centered on the idea of standing apart from what others tell you and sacrificing yourself for what you believe in. Approximate run time for the film is three to four minutes and will feature original story, cinematography and music created from within our Whitestone team.


We’ve jumped in with both feet on this project to create it at record speed from idea to completion in just four weeks. “Lest We Forget” will premier exclusively through the Paste website in mid June.

At Whitestone, we believe in the independent spirit of Paste and are lending our talents to support other independent leaders and artists, which is why we are donating this film for their cause. Throughout this project we will be documenting the process in weekly video blogs to be released every Friday. So stay tuned for sneak peaks from beginning to end including everything from brain storming sessions to location scouting all the way through to music and production.


We’re excited about this collaboration as a film making experience for Whitestone, and hope other artists will support Paste Magazine as well. Only by banding together can we embody the independent spirit that drives us all.
