A few months ago we did a screening of our 2010 film You Saved Me in Milwaukee and the crowd loved it. We had no doubt that they would because it’s our favorite as well but that night was special. Somewhere between the hotel room and our flight back to Atlanta Ronnie and I came up with the idea to create a follow-up to You Saved Me.
From that idea was birthed the concept for our next film Still Standing. Still Standing will highlight courageous couples who have faced life’s challenges but regardless of it all they are Still Standing! With this, our fourth film you’ll see a dramatic increase in the production value, the storytelling and the entire value of the film itself and we’re so excited.
I’m also happy to announce that Still Standing will feature an amazing cast of couples including Speech & Yolanda Thomas (Arrested Development) and Fatin & Aja Dantzler (Kindred the Family Soul). Last week we started production on the film. Below you’ll find some behind the scenes pics from our interview with Speech and Yolanda. Stay tuned as we bring you more pictures, video and content as we travel towards the May 1st release of Still Standing.

I’m digging the pics….this film is going to be powerful.
Thanks Ayize. We definitely think this film will help more marriages and relationships that anything we’ve done in the past. It will definitely be our signature piece up to this point.
I will be pre-ordering this one as I have been doing for all of your films which are awesome! Thanks for the work that you do. Very excited!
Thank you Nwenna! We appreciate our long time supporters such as you sooooo much!

This looks awesome! what’s the time frame on the new project?
We’ll be doing some advance screenings beginning in late March through April. Official DVD release on the web is May 1st. The cities we’ll be screening in are DC, Atlanta, Houston and Chicago go begin with. Others may pop up.
Thank you! We’ll be touring select cities including DC, Atlanta, Houston & Chicago from late March through April and the official release will be on May 1st. We’re also going to start a weekly Vlog here on the site that will carry everyone with us through the process of creating a film. Thanks for asking.
Can’t wait until this comes out! This is going to be huge. I wonder if I can drum up some interest in LA for some screenings. I’ll talk to you guys about it!
For sure. We have a few people out there we can connect you with to get the ball rolling.
So timely. It is about time a movie that reinforces positive images about marriage is being made! It’s a wonder if the jokes about suffering for the cause (the marriage) has corroded the image of marriage in our society; maybe its not convenient anymore…Inconvenience is not sexy!
Great points. We definitely intend to give both a positive and transparent look at marriage unlike anything seen before. Or at least since Happily Ever After and You Saved Me but this one will be even better!
