It’s here. Putting together a crowdfunding campaign is a lot of hard work. And so is making a movie, I have discovered much to my delight.
Put them both together and what do you have? A $#!+load of work.
Unlike previous crowdfunding projects, I’m not using Kickstarter this time. I’m using a new platform specifically for filmmaking, called Seed & Spark. It works slightly differently than Kickstarter, in that the project gets “greenlit” (i.e. funded) if it hits 80% of our goal.
So please jump on board with us! There’s a wide range of support levels, with some fun incentives. We want to make this a fun ride.
- $25 – A link to view the film when it’s finished, a shoutout on social media, a personalized video thank you from the main character, and a digital ID badge with your photo for the Demon for Hire Detective Agency.
- $40 – All the above plus a DVD.
- $75 – Special Thanks in the movie credits, plus above.
If you’d like to support us but not monetarily, that’s okay! Here’s what you can do instead:
- Click this link, then hit the “Follow” button on our campaign at Seed & Spark! Once we hit 250 “followers,” regardless of how many people pledge, we’ll start unlocking creator discounts for this and future projects.
- Share the campaign on your social media. Here’s some easy cut-and-paste text:
