Update #3: and it's official.... MELVIN and our KICKSTARTER CAMPAIGN are a success!
On April 1st, we launched a Kickstarter Campaign to raise $3,000 in 30 days – for finishing funds for our new film, MELVIN.
I can happily report back --- WE MADE IT!
What happens now?
Amazon.com is now processing the transactions for the project; your pledge amounts/credit card should have been charged at midnight last night. If they haven't been, they will be in the next 24 hours.
We will be fulfilling any and all of the rewards in the coming months. We expect the film to be finished by the end of the summer and at that time, the Digital Downloads and DVDs (as well as the other 'physical' rewards) will be shipped.
We'll be sending personal emails when we send out our rewards (to make sure that you've received them).
In the next week, we’ve got other great news to share about MELVIN – but we can’t report on it just yet…
That said, I wanted to thank all of you, again, for your wonderful support and belief in the project (and me).
All the best,
Chris Ohlson

Update #2: Wow. THANK YOU.
Many thanks to all of you who have supported MELVIN so far!
Thank you for getting behind me -- and this project.
We've reached our goal in 21 days... Amazing. The show of support has been wonderful -- and has definitely provided the project with a nice burst of energy as we get closer to finishing the film...
You can always check out http://chrisohlson.com/ for more detailed information -- and I'll be sending on updates about the rewards and other MELVIN-related info very, very soon.
We also got a quick press mention (incredibly well-timed, I might add) in a recent Cinematical article:

Cheers -- and thanks again to all of you,
