    Hi Forteller (and all who are interested), Thanks for the donation and support. As of now our intentions are to release the film with a Creative Commons License. We are big supporters of Lawrence Lessig and all his work regarding the outdated copyright laws in the US and globally. I will add some verbiage on the Kickstarter page showing the attribution. Incidentally all the trailers we have posted on the web via Vimeo and YouTube state a CC Licence however, when we were adding the video to KS there was not specific option to state as such. Again, thanks for backing and the suggestion. Cheers, Jeff

    Hi Michael!!! Thanks for the contribution! So far we've been up for 13 days. We're starting to pick up some major steam right now because of people like you sending this out to their friends. Now we've reached Australia! The Internet is an amazing tool... let's hope it stays that way:) Can I ask you where you found us? ~Chris
