Update 1:
Thanks for all the positive feedback everyone! This has been a labor of love on a budget of $0 with personal expense on my part and no funding. It makes it all worth while when we see other poeple responding to it. Thank you! - Aaron Sims

Update 2:
I want to thank all of you for the support and positive feedback I've received about my short film "Archetype".

This project was a labor of love, and so many talented, hard-working people helped in making it come to life. "Archetype" would not have been possible without all the talented individuals who contributed their time and skill, and I thank them - each and every one.

Please tell everyone you know to watch the short; the more people and positive responses we receive (and even likes on the YouTube page that we get) make a difference. With your help, we can hopefully get the feature version made - so Tweet, Facebook...get the word out!

Thanks again, and check out some of the online articles that have already gone live:

I want to thank everyone again for all the amazing support. It means so much to me to see so many of you that truly enjoyed Archetype.
Your continuing positive response will truly help in realizing a feature version of Archetype!!!
