Born To Lead: The Sal Aunese Story is the Inspirational Sports Documentary Feature that Chronicles the Life of Star College Football Player who Died of Cancer in 1989
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) January 12, 2014 -- Reminiscent of such poignant sports films of the past such as Brian’s Song and Rudy, Born To Lead is a rousing story of courage, friendship, and living life against the most brutal of obstacles.
Although scheduled for a September 2014 release, there is still work that needs to be done on the film, which is why the producers have taken to Kickstarter to help raise funds. With a target date of Jan. 24, 2014 to reach their goal of raising $22,000, the producers of Born To Lead are seeking these funds in order to combine archival images, audio, CGI, and editing in to the most compelling, exciting, and entertaining story possible. Since technology has changed so drastically in the past twenty-five years, it became extremely expensive to transfer all of the archival footage to honor the integrity of the film.
“We turned to Kickstarter because we believe that this is the best vehicle to let you – the audience – be a contributing part of this film’s success,” says producer George Antonopoulos “And we’re just at a point where these final dollars will help us push it in for Sal.”
