SING ALONG - Update Video #3

Update #5 · Aug 13, 2012 · comment

We filmed this video on a Sunday evening, giving love to exactly twice as many backers as we had in the first two weeks (for both of those, we had 30 each).  The outpour of love yesterday was so overwhelming, we discovered five new names while we were on set (thank goodness for the invention of the iPhone and its ability to surf the Web).

WE DID IT!

Update #4 · Aug 13, 2012 · 2 comments

So with five days to spare, last night, we met our $15,000 goal!  I want to thank everyone so much for their love and support, their belief in this film, their generosity in providing us with backing to make this movie, the time to get the word out.

Yesterday, I was filming an update video for five hours which I am about to post now.  I mentioned a lot of you in it and for those who backed us after we wrapped, you will hear your names in our very last video to be posted after the campaign ends.

In the meantime, if I have yet to send you some public love on Twitter (or Facebook), please tell me where you want me to send it and I will happily do that today.

Thank you, thank you, thank you once again for backing this project.  We are working hard behind the scenes to make sure we bring you an amazing film that you will be proud to be a part of.  "Sing Along" is being made not only for you but by you -- and I hope that makes it special to you.

-- Mark Oxman

An update for those who backed "Sing Along" in our second week on Kickstarter.  Also, the answer to last week's riddle was... in the opening, we were at Worldwide Plaza/New World Stages.  Congratulations to zero people who got this right!

You'll have a copy to show your friends, family, agent, casting directors, whoever you want. Plus you'll get to hang out on set and be in other scenes.
