Dear Supporter:

Glass Sea Productions LLC is dedicated to developing stories and documentaries for film that are family-friendly, portray the Christian faith in a positive light, and work to enlighten people's hearts and minds through the power of visual story telling.  In this endeavor, Glass Sea Productions developed and produces the San Diego Christian Film Festival which is dedicated to support Contemporary Christian filmmakers who seek excellence and innovation to convey Christian themes and inspiring messages to the community through film.Advertising is the perfect way to:

• Expose your business to filmmakers and film industry leaders from San Diego, Southern California and around the world.  Through Without a Box, SDCFF is promoted to over 200,000 filmmakers in 200 countries.

• Help SDCFF offset film projection and printing costs.

• Put your message out to thousands of new people reached through other various marketing methods.  Outreach marketing is reaching nearly 100 student organizations on the SDSU, UCSD, USD, and Pt. Loma Nazarine campuses, upwards of 60,000 people attending events where we operate booth space and over 500 churches in the San Diego county area.  As members of the San Diego Performing Arts League (SDPAL), marketing will reach an estimated 100,000 residents of San Diego county and Southern California.  As time progresses SDCFF exposure increases in neighborhood calendars, printed papers, Television and radio spots.  We anticipate over the course of the festival to reach or exceed 5000 participants in attendance.

We hope you will take advantage of this opportunity which will benefit your business as you help SDCFF grow and flourish in this community.

Sincerely,

Glass Sea Productions, LLC
