Help Fund This Ed Templeton Documentary


August 26, 2013 | Andy Cush

Strange New Feelings is a forthcoming new documentary about skater/artist/entrepreneur Ed Templeton, who, among many other things, founded and runs Toy Machine. According to director Kevin Barnett, the film “examines the life of artist and skateboard legend Ed Templeton as he navigates a blossoming art career and a transition from professional skateboarding.”

“Kevin Barnett my long time friend and right hand man here at Toy Machine, based on his close proximity to me on a daily basis, has decided to document my art practice over the last 5 years,” writes Templeton on his blog. “The film is coming closer to a finish line and he needs some funds to get it over the final hump.”

To get over that final hump, Barnett is raising funds on Kickstarter, and there are some tasty prizes up for grabs ($5,000 gets you an original work for Ed himself). Watch the artful pitch video–scored by L.A. punks No Age–below.
