Decayed Richmond

Richmond, VA

Decayed Richmond started out with a couple of kids living each day one night at a time. We never planned for this to happen. It is a project that encompasses the phenomenon of urban exploration and the counter-culture associated with it. What started out as a photoblog has turned into a documentary film project.

    $252 left to go!

     We are only $252 away from our goal of $3,000 with 10 days left to go. Keep those pledges coming, we are so close! If half of our backers raised their pledge by $10, we would be at our goal. Don’t forget to check out our updated rewards. We still have collectible skateboard decks, iPhone cases, coffee mugs, wedding photography, DVD’s, special photographic print collections, and a lot of other cool stuff. 

    Thank you all so much for your support.

    New Rewards - VIDEO UPDATE

    Hello backers and supporters,

    We have set up some new rewards and we don't want anyone to miss out on them. If you see anything in the new rewards that you like and would like to change your pledge and reward, visit the our page and click “Manage Your Pledge.” To change your pledge and/or reward, enter your new pledge amount in the box and make a new reward selection.

    We have added a new wedding photography reward for a lot less than $3,000. We've make rewards will make a music video, website, or photograph some band promos. We've added a limited edition framed photo-collection of five special photos from Richmond's abandoned buildings. We have iPhone 4/4S cases, which make an easy step up from a $50 or $75 pledge. 

    Last and definitely not least, we have added a very special limited reward at a medium pledge level. Want to see the film before anyone else? Pledge $299 and we will come to your living room to screen the whole film, BEFORE THE PREMIERE, for you and some friends (it's cool if you and some friends pool money to do this, just make sure the pledge is in one solid amount.) Popcorn and soda of your choice provided. We will only be doing this for 5 lucky backers.

     

    Check out this video for more information on the new rewards:
