Kickstarter
Ok, we have 39 days to raise over 7,000. Thank you people who have been donating on the kickstarter. What an adventure. It has been exciting to meet more of the BASE community and receive support. We still have a ways to go. Please keep promoting on your facebook, twitter, and where ever you can. I have been working hard here in California to be ready to transfer footage and get stuff going on!!!
About
Gravity is a non-fiction feature that captures what it feels like to jump off a building, cliff or bridge and walk away alive. It is about the essence of life, of freedom, of what it feels like, for a moment, to defy gravity, and to fly.
In the early eighties Carl Boenish coined the acronym “BASE” (standing for Buildings, Antenna, Span, and Earth, the objects jumped) and invented a sport. Carl was the catalyst behind modern BASE jumping; an electrical engineer and filmmaker who believed that BASE jumping would allow mankind to overcome artificial limitations. He religiously chronicled the early days of BASE in beautiful 16mm film, often with cameras mounted to the jumpers’ heads. He saw BASE as the next amazing thing to film. Subscribe via RSS.
