Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on August 4, 2012.
Remember, we have a donor willing to match whatever was pledged within the last 24 hours of the campaign. So basically, if we make it to $10,000, the last 5k will be donated by Ken Bretschneider. We have had people step up big and we think we can make it! Please pass the link around and let people know that whatever they pledge will be matched.
Thanks again and keep up the good work!

BIG NEWS, A friend of the project, Ken Bretschneider has agreed to MATCH whatever funds we bring in the next 24 hours! Which means we are less than $5000 away from reaching our goal! Please spread the word to others and ask them to pledge even if it's only a dollar! Every little bit will help. if we get $4,574 in pledges in the next 24 hours he will match it and bring us to our goal of 15,000 but if we don't reach that it is a no go. It's all or nothing now so please spread the work and up the donations if you can, there are plenty of great prizes to be had!
Thanks,
Maclain Nelson and the Vamp U team....
P.S. Here is a picture made from the prop stakes from the movie...
Amazing news! We just finalized the deal on a limited theatrical release, and widespread DVD and video on demand release for Vamp U! Here is a link to the press release . I was told to keep it under wraps until the deal was final final but now we can spread the word!
What this means for Backers, if we reach our goal...
1. Current producer level backers will have a THEATRICAL RELEASE under their belt as producers! This adds great prestige to those of you who are looking for IMDB credits to your name.
2. The collectors item stakes and DVD's, T-shirts etc., will be worth more as this film has a guaranteed release and will now be seen by the whole world! As the film gains popularity, you could be sitting on a collectible gold mine!.
3. You are the smartest Kickstarter Backers ever to support a film, that with your help, is going to be the next cult hit!
PLEASE Help us over the next 48 hours to reach our goal so we can give out these amazing prizes you have pledged for. As you know it is all or nothing so if we don't reach our goal, we can't send out the prizes. Spread the word to others and get them on the Vamp U band wagon!
Thanks so much, let me know if you have questions!!!!!
Maclain
Please do your best to spread the Vamp U link to facebook, twitter and email for the last push this week. We are 1/3 of the way! Thanks for all of your support. As a reward for your help I have included a track inspired by one of our lead actor Adam Johnson's improvised songs from the movie. It is called "Mary" Re-recorded by the very talented Sam Means.
Enjoy,
Maclain
