Gearing up For The Final Push on the Movie…
Well, we are committed to making the movie, and we are pinching every penny. We know you've already given, and we don't want you to give more. We just need your help crossing the finish line.
Jonathan and Zach, the two guys who created the Save Blue Like Jazz campaign are coming on part time to keep communication up regarding what happens on set and in post production. And they are doing it for the cost of renting the equipment, basically. They are going to be a major link between the film and those of you who have donated. What that means is you won't be in the dark. If you give even a dollar, you'll be on the mailing list and we will be sending you updates.
Most of you who read the blog and follow me on twitter have already donated. And if you didn't donate, you certainly helped get the word out. So here's what would really help us:
1. Tweet about the project several times. Provide a link directly to the kickstarter page. Here's that link: http://tinyurl.com/22orqmq
2. Make the link your facebook status with a reason you gave. Again, here's the link: http://tinyurl.com/22orqmq
3. Blog about why you donated to the project. And please provide the link. If you need the link, here it is: http://tinyurl.com/22orqmq
4. Get a tattoo in a prominent location (not on our bum, cause that's covered by clothes, we hope) here's what the tattoo should say: http://tinyurl.com/22orqmq
5. Bring up the campaign over dinner, lunch, breakfast, tea, coffee, ultimate frisbee, or yoga classes.
6. If you attend a baseball playoff game, make out with your girl to get on the kissing cam, and wear a shirt that says: http://tinyurl.com/22orqmq (make sure when the camera is on you to stop making out, jump in front of her and throw your chest out so people can read the link.
While 200k makes history on kickstarter, 250k means we don't have to sell Steve's plasma. He's awfully skinny as it is, and we need his wits about him on set. In fact, everybody involved is awfully skinny which means they are going to make me sell my plasma and I seriously, seriously love my plasma.
ALL OF THIS IS PREPARING FOR MONDAY. On Monday, we are going to make a huge last push. We love that it is going down to the last minute, but we are also having heart attacks. So if you can do some of this this week and keep it buzzing over the weekend, then we will all go full press on Monday.
We know you've already donated. Please don't let us manipulate you like an old lady responding to a televangelist and giving us your retirement. But please DO recruit your friends to get on board! THANKS!!
