Visiting Michael Schiess at the Pacific Pinball Museum

Posted on August 27, 2011 by Anna Newman

If you haven’t made the trip to Alameda, CA to visit the Pacific Pinball Museum, you need to. 90+ games on free play, beautiful artwork, signage and knowledgeable folks to teach you history of American Pinball, and a great vibe. There was a Mad Men themed birthday party in one of the rooms you can rent — everyone was turned out beautifully.

Michael is working with me on putting together a super finale for Pinball Donut Girl: I am going to film those scenes with his machines. I’m thinking the featured machine for the finale should be Fun House. What do you think? I’ll make a poll and you guys can help me decide.

Great News! ~ Pinball Donut Girl has been selected by Fractured Atlas!

Fractured Atlas, the fantastic non-profit supporting arts and artists nationally, has selected Pinball Donut Girl as a sponsored project.

What does this mean?

I means that when you support Pinball Donut Girl financially, you’ll now be able to receive tax benefits. And I get to partner with a great group of wonderfully savvy folks as I raise the funds we need to complete PBDG.

If you are an artist in any discipline, or support the arts, check out Fractured Atlas. I encourage you to become a member.

PS: If you are a filmmaker, FA has great liability insurance programs. I insure through them. I also love their free on-line classes.
