Posted project update #13Check Us OUT
Post CommentOUT Magazine just did a huge feature on gay filmmakers using Kickstarter to fund their films, and how it's changing the equation in Hollywood -- using fight to fund Seed Money, and the backers who came to our rescue as one of the prime examples.
Check it out! (Or better yet, pick up a copy.)

Thanks again for all your support. We're moving forward with production this month, and couldn't have done it without you.

Posted project update #12Phase One: The Paper Edit
Post CommentI looked at the piles of transcripts splayed across the coffee table this morning, I thought of all our backers. We've got a long road ahead of us. But thanks to you, phase one, paying for the transcripts of interviews we've already shot, is complete. Over the past month, we've been working to put together a paper edit -- essentially an oral history in script form -- from footage. We estimate that we've got about 75% of what we need. Once we have a paper edit, we'll figure out who else we need to shoot in order to tell the story. If you've got any requests -- or Calvin Klein's phone number -- let us know!

Posted project update #11We did it!!!!
We're in awe.
Chuck's story began as labor of love, it became an obsession, and with your help, it's become a movement. We can't thank you enough. Through your generosity, through your enthusiasm, through your tireless campaigning on our behalf we made our goal and Seed Money has gotten funded.
Now the real work begins. To the story of Chuck, of the industry he built, and the ways in which not only porn, but the politics of sexuality changed over those three decades. We can't wait to bring you with us. We'll be in good touch going forward. For right now, we're going to have a drink. It's been a stressful 45 days, and we couldn't have done it with out you.
Thank you,
Mike, Ben, Jack
