In documentary, you work closely with your subjects. We’ve had the joy of spending more than four years with MOONEYES on this multimedia project, which includes a feature documentary, documentary photography series, cinema events, and more. To create this expansive project, we’ve enlisted the help of gracious MOONEYES family, friends, and colleagues; respected experts; and talented crew.
During the pandemic, we received precious aid from the California Humanities CA Cares Relief Grant and Doc Society to survive during this challenging time. Our fiscal sponsor, the International Documentary Association, has provided invaluable filmmaking support. Through two crowdfunding campaigns, we were blessed by many generous donors from all over the world to help finish the film.
To independently distribute our film, we’ve partnered with many leading automotive museums, renowned industrial design colleges, respected automotive publications, and rising car culture brands. We’re honored to collaborate with Nick Tolosa of Makina Drivers Club and Anthony Ngo of 8th & Santa Fe.
To organize our CineMakina: “Craft of Speed” MOONEYES Documentary Screening / Car Show / Photography Exhibit, presented by Makina Drivers Club and Humanist Films, we’re excited to work with many innovative speed shops, talented photographers, celebrated food & beverage vendors, and kind volunteers. Most of all, we’re grateful to all of the devoted MOONEYES fans and passionate automotive community, for whom we made this film.
To all of these people, families, companies, and organizations, we owe a debt of thanks. We’ve always thought independent filmmaking is about collaboration and gratitude.
