Zach Weddington the producer of VIVA AMIGA the documentary has just posted this Thank You video on Youtube... :)

Well done to everyone who pre-ordered and backed this great project... :)
Now it really looks like the Amiga's important history which it has played in the evolution of modern day home computing will be preserved forever for all to see... :)
-
That was a nice touch to record a thank you message.
Looking forward to the film. Sounds like a lot of work still to do.

Pretty cool.

It's going to be a great film. Looking forward to it.

Is there an ETA for release?

Is there an ETA for release?
If you listen to Zach in the video filming is still being planned well into the winter months, so it looks like early next year will be the release date... :)
Still... good things come to those who wait... :)

Was a nice touch to post a thank you video, nice to see it's getting made. A story that certainly needs to be told.
-
Well having just received a confirmation email from KickStart (I assume others have too) that my pledged money has been transferred, it looks like the producers can finally complete this movie as all backers money should now be safely in their hands... :)
At last we're going to get what will hopefully be the definitive movie about the important part the Amiga has played in shaping the world of modern day home computing... can't wait... :)

Anyone heard any updates on the film lately?

Yep, here's what I got in e-mail a few days ago:

Hey all, just a reminder for those in the Milwaukee and Chicago metro areas, Viva Amiga is gonna be here this weekend doing some interviews with gaming and Commodore historians. But if you can come on out and want to say hello, perhaps we can get you interviewed, if you have a story to tell. Also, yeah. Giant frickin arcade. Yeah.

That's weird.. I double posted somehow... I was having some issues editing the links (my e-mail client had swapped them for referred links).. Sorry for the double post! :-(

It's beautiful that someone have the willingness and ability to make this stuff happen! I donated some to help it come out. Maybe I will be showing this video to my son someday and tell him how great this world of computing would be, IF Amiga would have survived. Or hopefully it will be resurrected in some form, thanks to Amiga inspired systems that are becoming reality, such as Natami project. I will lay out my cash for THAT!

Wiil Viva amiga be available to buy or can you only get a copy if you were a kickstarter pledger? I really want to see this documentary when it's released.
