Kickstarter Project “Birds of Paradise” by David Formentin

Birds Of Paradise (2012) Official Trailer from David Formentin on Vimeo.

A few months ago, my friend David Formentin was talking to me over beers at Shake Shack about this film he wanted to create.  He wanted to utilize social media and the Internet to spread the word  and was asking me where to begin.  For someone who would say his social media skills are not up to par, Birds of Paradise has gone above and beyond his funding goal on Kickstarter, raising $5,000 with 9 days to spare.  Today is the final day for donations and before David becomes famous for an award-winning film, I wanted to ask him how he got to this point of seeing his idea become a reality.
