Tesla Tales Across the Globe Film
We have extended the deadline for the submissions of the film segments, and even the new deadline of April 20th is not final, as this project is so exciting and we want it to live on! We want it to be all inclusive. People are travelling over the spring and summer months to exotic places and we want to see them greet and recognize Nikola Tesla wherever they are. Our target is to produce the first film for Tesla Day 2025; however, we plan to continue with the sequel for the next year.
Remember: Your phone/camera must be horizontal and please see to it that there is not too much background noise.

Tesla Day Celebration will be this year on July 10th
We are working hard on preparations. Details to follow. ______________________________________________________________________________
