Real Time Dreams

Thursday, August 5th, 2010

Back in May, at SOUP STOCK 03, our winners, Kelly and Marty, met a young entrepreneur by the name of Karl Rosaen.  This meeting lead to a collaboration and a commercial for Karl’s new venture, Real Time Farms.  His site allows users to set up a free account and upload pictures they’ve taken at their own farmers’ markets, giving visitors a rich set of visual and other data regarding local produce.  Very cool!

P.S.  Last night, at 6:32pm AKST, Marty and Kelly reached Alaska!  Congratulations!

Marty Stano and Kelly Gallagher with their winnings.

SOUP STOCK 03 is all wrapped up and we’re proud to announce the winners are Marty Stano and Kelly Gallagher.  They received a $117 grant towards their upcoming road trip from Ann Arbor, MI to Alaska to Argentina.  They will be documenting the project along the way, as well as looking for opportunities to share their knowledge of filmmaking with children across the Western Hemisphere.

Today’s SOUP STOCK was a very close race, with Jeff Tenza’s local farmer film project being edged out by a single vote.  Jeff, we hope that you’ll resubmit your project next month since we think it’s an excellent idea.

Special thanks to Bad Fairy, Wonder Woman, and Anita LeBlanc for the amazing soups you made for us today.  Big ups to Friday Mornings @ SELMA for the use of bowls, spoons and napkins. To everyone who came out to support the project, we couldn’t have done it without you.  We hope to see you again next month!
