Finding Funding

So, despite getting assistance from UT in the form of equipment use, there are still a lot of incidentals that need to be paid for including renting a truck to haul our gear, the cost of renting the RED digital imaging camera, cost of food to keep people happy and fed, location fees, maybe even being able to pay some of our actors... everyone in the film industry should be trying to get to a point where they can afford to pay their talent and crew!  There are tons of little things we need to be able to pay for to help make this film happen.


So, last night we applied to be a project on Kickstarter.  It's a really cool site where people with creative ideas can go to share their plans for their projects and get pledges from people all over the world.  It's an all or nothing set-up, though.  We'd only get the money pledged if we meet our goal and if we don't get the goal, your pledged money stays yours.  Because they're still in a beta test, they only accept so many projects but, hopefully in a few days, we'll know if they're going to help us out.  If they do, you'll be able to pledge money to the film and, if we reach our goal, you'll get a cool bonus gift depending on your pledge amount!
