Another kickstarter-centered project---right now, I'm part of a team (associate producer and sound engineer; I hold boom mics, check recordings and yell at people) working in independent film. The project is quite probably the first feature-length film trilogy yet done in the realm of fan-film, based on the Masters of the Universe franchise. The first film in the series, "The Wizard of Stone Mountain," is in the can already and debuted in three full screenings at fan conventions in Germany and Los Angeles and theatrically in Austin, Texas (at the legendary Alamo Drafthouse), and is available to feed your hungry eyeballs with on the interbutts. We're gearing up for production on the second and third films, "The Fountain of Life" and the third one, whose title is TBA. Filming will start at the turn of the year, with the premieres of both films to happen in August, 2012 and `13. Naturally, since we're working in fan-film, we're wholly non-profit, all of the actors and actresses, crew and personnel are eating operating costs out of our own pockets, hence our appeal to the internet at large, to bring the best sword and sandal and Skeletor film we can to the masses. Our kickstarter page, with further production details, is here http://kck.st/r600oR and our team's home on the internet is here http://www.weirdcityfilms.com/ Even if you can't help, feel free to follow along as we post video updates from behind the scenes and, eventually, the whole of the trilogy, free for all.

The project is quite probably the first feature-length film trilogy yet done in the realm of fan-film, based on the Masters of the Universe franchise. So a couple of pages back, I was posting about the kickstarter the indie film team I'm working with was pushing for---we failed to meet our goal. So this time we're trying Indiegogo...and we hit our mark thanks to a really generous rich guy. However, since we've still got some time on the campaign, we're trying to see if we can upgrade our current arsenal (an arsenal of one) of cameras, so we can shoot takes from multiple angles and, with the more powerful camera, do some effects work that our current rig simply can't handle. We're only a few hundo short of our extended camera goal, so any kind of spare change that can be thrown our way will be a large step forward. EDIT: Go me, helps if I include the linkage - http://igg.me/p/71102?a=23477
