Kickstarter

Anyone who pledged two dollars will get a personal e-mail thank you, as well as their name in the credits of the final production, and best of all 3 lucky names will be added into a drawing for a video shout out via Facebook, Twitter, and my blog, sometime during the trip. It might even make the final production!

One Thumb Club: I will take a photo with your name on a sign, piece of paper, napkin, bark, or whatever may be laying around while on the road. I will take a picture to recognize your donation, and then compile a slide show before the credits at the end of the documentary. Maybe your photo will be taken in Great Falls, Montana, Pink Mountain, British Columbia, or Tok, Alaska! Who knows? Anyone who donates the minimum and up will be invited to the first ever screening, if you help me make this happen!

Two Thumbs Club: Receive a postcard from Ryan while he's on the road traveling. Get a personalized hand written postcard from Ryan sent to your home, telling you about his travels and what he's up to that day. This level also includes your name on a picture featured in the documentary.

Three Thumbs Club: Get a personalized shoutout video message to you, or a person of choice, from the road. For example, I will say hello while traveling, or film an interesting subject I observe during my travels and specifically mention you while doing whatever I'm doing. I will post the video to the ThumbsOut Facebook, Twitter, and Blog for yourself and friends to view. This will also be included in the special features after production, or maybe even make the documentary itself. This also includes a phone call from the road, and you're name written on a something that will be featured in the film.

Four Thumbs Club: I spend a day of travel dedicated to, in tribute of, or in honor of someone or something. I will start the day off recognizing the person or thing (e.g. autism) of your choice on camera and will state the name of the person, where you and the person are from, and a personalized description of your story. If you pledge this you are guaranteed a spot in the final edit of the film as well as a signed final copy.

High Five Club: Meet Ryan on the road at your travel destination of choice, and join him for up to 48 hours hitch-hiking with him, camping with him, or even have me come to your house and do some yard work. This will forever allow you to be part of this epic adventure, and will allow you an experience you may never be able to achieve otherwise. So take a risk, and join me to see what it's like to live on the edge! It's up to you, and we can hammer out the details in the future.
