Kickstarter Campaign for Film about Mediums

Boston-based filmmaker John Cole is using Kickstarter to fund the documentary Modern Mediums, which will be an objective probe into the world of mediums to uncover if they are clairvoyants, con artists or counselors.

The planned film, to be filmed in and around Boston, will examine what draws so many people to mediums. Filming will include interviews with participants before readings are done, filming of the readings themselves and interviews with people after readings are over. Those receiving the readings will be strangers to the medium, selected by the film’s producers. Cole’s team will check the facts behind what the mediums say and interview experts about what attracts people to mediums.

Particularly for non-partisan documentaries, more filmmakers are turning to crowdsourcing channels as a means of financing projects. “Kickstarter projects allow a freedom to create that is unmatched anywhere else,” Cole notes. “We will be able to explore mediumship without the constraints associated with traditional funding, which we believe will yield a significantly better film.” If successfully funded, Cole and Mark Stein expect to deliver the final cut by early December.
