If this is your first time here, scroll down to learn more about our film. In the future, we will be setting up a more formal website to house much of this information and use this blog simply for updates and for letting anyone know who wishes to help out how they can do so.
We shot our first interview on Saturday with Dr. Victor Baker at the University of Arizona, and we are very pleased with how it turned out. We will post a snippit or two here in the future, but it's suffice to say that we are off to a great start.
Our main objective now is to get to India and the few other places on our list. Here are a few ways you can help us to get there:
Donate. Travel is expensive, and right now getting to the places we need to go is the first necessary step toward making this film a reality. In a few cases, our room and board are taken care of and all we need to do is get there.
The best way you can donate right now is online through Kickstarter. There, a donation of $25 or more will ensure you a copy of the film when it is completed, as well as a credit in the film with a $50 donation. There are other potential rewards based on the amount, so check it out. It'll go to a good cause, but it will be worth it to you too.
Alternately, you may use Paypal, by clicking on the ChipIn link to the right and following the instructions. If you do not have Paypal, you can create one, or use a debit or credit card, but it may charge a fee.
As another option, you can check here to see if your bank offers PopMoney. It is a new service similar to Paypal that links to your bank account so you don’t have to put any of your bank account information online. If you do not have a Paypal account but your bank offers Popmoney, this may be the best option. To send money this way, ask your bank how to send money using Popmoney. The email to use to send it to me is altgeologydoc@gmail.com (this service is currently only available at U.S. banks)
If you would like to send money using a check, money order or traveler’s check, send it to: Alan Hayman, P.O. Box 5591, Tucson, AZ 85703
You can also help us in these ways...
Media/Resources. Good archival footage is invaluable and would be a huge help to us. This could include radio or television interviews, news footage, press releases, relevant music, informational or educational videos, PSA’s and commercials, other documentaries, movies with interesting or humorous clips of relevance, and literature, such as primary sources, news stories or academic and personal correspondence. Referrals are also very helpful. People of interest include researchers and scientists familiar with alternative concepts, those affiliated with geologic societies around the world, journalists who are familiar with reporting science, educators of geology who are familiar with the politics of science and alternative tectonic concepts, and especially anyone working in the areas of earthquake and volcanism prediction.
International Connections. There are many places that this documentary will take us, including Australia, India, Italy and Japan, and anyone who lives in any of those countries could help us immensely by offering to either house us or show us where the best deals are. We will also be looking to get footage of the geography in many of these places to be used in the film. We may need translators to conduct interviews as well. What we will eventually need, we will post here in the coming months, but it couldn’t hurt to let us know who you are and where you are.
Word-of-Mouth. Perhaps the best way you can help is to link this page to anyone and everyone you know, and put an extra kind word in for us when you do. If you can’t afford to donate or don’t know how else you can help, this alone would go a long way. Also, become a subscriber by clicking the Follow link to the left, that way you’ll get an email as soon as any updates are posted.
