Z*Con - A Feature Length Film by Michael Dougherty » Updates

You've done an amazing job...

Update #5 - For backers only · Jul 10, 2012 · 1 comment

For backers only. If you're a backer of this project, please log in to read this post.

There's been a lot going on during this first week. We've been written up on Wired's GeekMom and several other blogs, an army of phenomenal supporters have been taking to Twitter and Facebook to draw some attention this way, Podcast interviews like with awesome peeps like Sci-Fi Saturday Night and ZombieTech, the awesome people behind Gamerati have donated some advertising to help us spread the word....Oh...and Neil Gaiman himself even tweeted about the project due to the awesome work of the army spreading the infection.

We're already started working on things for the movie. I've got a blueprint of the film I'm putting together that I'll share at the end of next week. Vince has been sketching like a mad man on some zombies. Here's some of those sketches.

Oh, we're also expanding the rewards. ALL backers will get to read the first five pages of the film. We'll be sending the link to current backers starting Monday via a message here on Kickstarter.

And that's just week fracking one!

We have a hell of a lot to do to reach our goal, but if week one is a sign of things to come...I'm extremely hopeful.

This is my first kickstarter campaign. I want to hear from you what updates we should be putting here. Leave them in the comments below. Let's make the last three weeks a blow out of awesomeness!

Mike
