Dear friends,
we'd like to share with you a special project.
The fantastic film director Dannah Nayblat is creating an animation music video for Club des Belugas' song "Some Like it Hot".
Dannah is doing all the work alone, in her spare time, and the progress is very slow. Therefore she decided to raise funds that will allow her to dedicate the necessary time to complete the project and hire additional help.
The follwing link is to the Kickstarter fundraising campaign for the project.
If you click on it, you'll find a short video that will tell you more about it.

Deadline of this project's funding goal is June 17, 2012.
Would be great if you support this outstanding video project.
