This fellow was next to me at our site on the centerline for the May 2013 annular eclipse. They are trying to make a documentary.

> Hi Jay,
>
> As you already know, myself and fellow eclipse chaser, David Finlay, are in the process of completing a documentary of the 10 May annular eclipse and we need your help. In fact we need the help from everyone in the vast eclipse chasing and astronomical community.
>
> The filming of the documentary is complete, however we require a modest amount of additional funds to finalise post production. We're not asking for donations or charity though; we're Crowd Funding.
>
> Through the website Indiegogo, people interested in receiving DVD copies of our documentary can commit to various levels of funding, for which they receive "Perks". You can purchase a pair of eclipse shades, a DVD of the documentary, or 20 seconds of airtime on the DVD to promote whatever your want!
>
> If only 1% of amateur and professional astronomers around the globe commit to funding, we'll make our target easily.
>
> And if each person sends this message on to just a few other astro-contacts, or posts the link on their favourite blog or astro-forum, we'll reach those 1% of funders. But we need to hurry; the funding campaign will finish on Monday the 5th of August.
>
> If this campaign proves to be successful, we intend to document future eclipses using this format; with better equipment and a proper host next time. Eclipse t-shirts are great, but a DVD of the event can be a memento to keep and cherish forever (especially if you're on it or you missed it!).
>
> All we ask is that you share this link with people that might be interested.

> Thanks in advance for your help! I look forward to seeing you again at another eclipse.
