Update #4: Clare Fundraising is Complete

Posted on October 3, 2011

Hello everyone!

I hope you all had a great weekend. I know we sure did.

Claire finished it's fundraising drive at noon on Saturday more than $500 over our initial goal! We want to take a moment to thank you all again for your contributions and support. We will be putting together rewards packages for our backers soon, so keep an eye out for emails asking for mailing information.

We're excited to move forward and wrap this project up in the best possible way and we hope you'll enjoy watching the final result as much as we enjoyed making it.

Best,

Dan Ast

Update #3: YOU DID IT!

Posted on September 29, 2011

Ladies and gentleman, post production audio for Claire is now funded.

When we crossed the line, someone said to me "You did it!"

That was a nice sentiment, but it's not accurate.

YOU did it. The backers. Because of you, we can finish Claire and get her out into the festival world, and hopefully on a screen near you.

We're getting right to work on all the awesome rewards you've all racked up.

If you know of any friends or family who are still interested in contributing, we still have 42 hours to go for them to join you in the film credits. The more we raise, the more festivals we can submit to after the audio process is finished.

You can continue to track our progress at our official website:

Thanks again for your incredible support on this long and rewarding journey.

Sincerely,

Dan Ast

As a thank you for all of your support I'd like to leave you with our newest and most substantial Behind The Scenes video (now with new bonus material):

Update #2: Claire - Opening Credits Sequence

Posted on September 7, 2011

Hi everyone!

We've reached $1,200 in about 8 days and we're moving right along! For reaching the $1,200 mark we've uploaded the opening credits sequence of the movie for you to take a look at!

Hopefully this will give a good sense of the tone of the film along with showcasing Andy Wilkinson's hard work on the opening visuals and Mike Meehan's haunting Claire Theme, which should give an idea of the rest of the movie.

Stay tuned for more perks such as gift cards, DVDs, signed props and other cool incentives for donating along with the continual offerings such as the Claire score and the posters!

If you know anyone who might be interested in helping out, please pass our Kickstarter link along to them and ask them to "Like" us on Facebook.
