    The following names are the finalists. Please do not be discouraged if your name is not on this list. Tenacity is the backbone of the filmmaker. Keep trying for my grant, other grants, funding parties, and leave no stone unturned.

    I promised you a consultation. I will take appointments in July and August Monday through Friday from 2:30 to 4:30. Please go to doodle.com and make an appointment for your consultation. From the Heart and Carole Dean.

    We can talk about funding or improving your proposal or whatever you want. Remember, funding starts in your mind, so just continue to keep the faith and stay in the flow; use your mind to create your film through your belief.

    Visualize your film from beginning to end. See the credits as you sit back in a posh chair at Raleigh Studios screening room and watch as the lights go down and your film comes up. Feel the emotions of pride, excitement, relief and success at the completion of your film.

    This visualization into the future can create the present. That’s right. Daydreaming is in. Go into the future and create the present, it works! Doors begin to open that were never there before.

    Keep trying. Enter this grant again, search for more grants, do funding parties, networking parties and leave no stone unturned. There is money for your film; you need to know your film will be completed.
