There are 4 days left in our Indiegogo campaign. As I type this blog up, we are currently at $5,365. Our goal is $7,500. That means, for those who hate math as much as I do, that we have $2,135 left until we reach our goal. That is a pretty substantial amount in a very short period of time.
To those who have already donated (and some of you multiple times), I thank you once again on behalf of everyone who worked on Red Scare. You have gone above and beyond, and I love you for that. I am not asking you to donate more, but if you want to, I won't say no... But I will ask that you take the time to share the indiegogo link (www.indiegogo.com/red-scare). Do it on your facebook pagee, your twitter feed... Go to your email address book, and just send a mass email.
In four days, donations will close, and you won't have to see the constant emails, facebook posts, and blogs that ask for money. (The next time you see those will be if/when we start selling tickets to the first screening.) So, as a last plea for donations, I offer the following reasons.
*The movie is really, really good. It is a step up in quality from what we have done before. We took everything we learned on BGR, and stepped up our game in every way. Our equipment is better, our crew is more seasoned and comfortable working with each other, and our actors are far and away some of the best I have ever worked with.
*If you donate as little as $15, you help us out big time, and you secure yourself a ticket to the 1st screening. Depending on where we screen, there may only be tickets for cast, crew, and donors... But if you donate in the next 3 days, I will make sure that you have a secured ticket.
*Tickets to the screening will be more than $15 if you do not donate. But if you do donate, you can get additional tickets for the same, discounted price.
*Like I said, this cast & crew are simply amazing, and the work everyone has done will blow you away. And everyone has worked for free. We are all doing this simply because we love doing it, because this is what we do. No one is making money at this point from this movie; some of us will wind up losing money. But we all believe in the project so much, that we are willing to do this. A donation from you today helps us with the financial burden of movie making... It also shows us that we have support in making these movies. And that goes a long way.
*At the first screening, we plan on premiering several trailers for potential future projects. This is how Red Scare started, and I am very excited about all of the trailers that we have discussed making for the "Red Scare" screening. If you donate, and come to the screening, you will be the first people to see these trailers.
*Like I mentioned above, donating shows support; and the more support we see, the more inclined we will be to continue making such projects as "Loster," "Langsomer Tod," "The Man With The Red Bowtie," "The Journey," and more. (Those are the names of some of the trailers, by the way.)
*You have the chance to get plenty of great, limited edition perks. I am still asked about BGR shirts, WWBCD? Bracelets, and autographed pictures, but the only ones who have received those great perks were the ones who donated to BGR.
So there you have it. There may be plenty of reasons why you do not want to donate; but there are so many reasons to help us out.
That is all for now. We are busy in post production mode. Below, I am attaching some thing a friend of mine did in honor of Red Scare using an iphone filter app. It is pretty cool.
Stay tuned!
