We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on December 23.

YOU DID IT! PROJECT OF THE MONTH.

Update #23 · Jan 22, 2013 · 1 comment

You guys did it!

You made The Fitzroy Indiewire's project of the month! We're over the moon and couldn't be happier. We now get a consultation from the Tribeca Film Institute about the film.

Thank you all for voting and making this happen. You truly are the best supporters in the world!

We’ll keep you up to date on how the talks go (probably over at the blog).

THE FITZROY SHOP

Or as we like to call it on board, the Naafi. If you missed out on the Kickstarter campaign and want to help make The Fitzroy - well now you can by pre-ordering the DVD, being immortalised as a character in the opening titles or becoming the envy of all your friends with one of The Fitzroy t-shirts. You can grab all of those and more here.

And you can now get a physical CD of the soundtrack! (We offered this to HMV but they said they were busy at the moment)

SHOOTING PEOPLE SHORT OF THE MONTH

More competitions! Yes that’s right, Choke Mate is through to the final round of Shooting People’s short film of the month. You can see it here.

Now we know that not all of you are members of Shooting People but if you are, please take a few seconds to login and vote. Even if you voted earlier in the month you need to RE-VOTE as it’s the final.

The winning short gets viewed by Kevin McDonald, the director of The Last King of Scotland.

AND ONE LAST THING.

It’s been snowing here in the UK. Which is very exciting. In many ways when it snows here it’s a bit like an apocalypse. No one goes to work, the young rush out and go mad and those few older, more experienced folk who have been through it all before barricade themselves in their houses.

We rushed out and built a snowman!

So without further ado we’d like to introduce you to the Frosty Fitz, the Fitzroy Snowman! 

We asked for name suggestions on Facebook and the winner - there is no prize - goes to Gareth Macleavy who suggested ‘Frosty Fitz.’

Thank you all again for making The Fitzroy the Indiewire ‘Project of the Month’.
