Ian Higgins writes from the studio,<\/p>\n

As our Phase 2 campaign comes to an end we\u2019re packing our bags and making last minute preparations for our trip to\u00a0Japan. It\u2019s going to be a very busy 10 days but we\u2019re very excited at the thought of all the great footage we\u2019ll come back with.<\/p>\n

Alongside prepping for the Japan trip, we\u2019ve started work on filming some of the extra scenes, focusing mainly on one of the most demanding and technically difficult sequences \u2013 the war scenes in\u00a0China, where Dr. Nagai witnessed the horrors of war first hand and found himself turning to God for the comfort and strength he needed to survive.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s quite a bit more to do before the scenes are complete, but we\u2019re very pleased with how things are shaping up with this sequence. Check out our blog for more stills from the shoot.<\/p>\n

Before we get back to the grind, we\u2019d like to say thank you to everyone who has so kindly donated towards the funds we badly need to be able to do justice to this remarkable story.<\/p>\n

Domo\u00a0arigato gozaimasu!<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Check out the Production blog post<\/a> as well. The crew will be there for 10 days, thanks to the generosity of readers like you, filming sequences for the film All That Remains<\/em>. It\u201ds not too late to contribute to the cause, as 12 hours remains on the clock<\/a>. Give your wallet a nudge and let\u2019s see if we can clear $1000 before time is called.<\/p>\n

If I haven\u2019t convinced you to give $$$ (have you seen the trailers?<\/a>)with the post the other day, read this one<\/a> to help understand why Takashi Nagai\u2019s story is worth telling with as much drama and realism as possible.<\/p>\n
