CD Soundtrack!

We have ordered 1000 copies of our CD Soundtrack of the film!

This involved mastering the CD (thanks to Stan Skora, our audio engineer), designing the CD wallet (yea Tim), collaboration with all of the musicians who gave permission for us to use their music, blessings especially from Lisa Haese Smith, who composed most of the music, and navigating the steps with a replication company, Oasis, (barcodes, etc.) Producing is no easy job.

This was on top of the recording session in LA in which our music was orchestrated--and all of the work after that to edit it.

Here's what the CD wallet looks like in its flattened form. It will be a folded piece, the size of a regular CD.  (The first of our film-related products!  Now, to get finished with the film itself!)  I'll put the list of music cuts below the design.
