Just wondering if I should have expected an email yet asking for details, if I pledged money?
We're sorry you read the rewards wrong. It clearly states the HIGHEST backer (singular) will receive a walk on role. You were not it. Please feel free to provide us with your address so that if and when your donation is cleared we can return your donation. Thank you.
We need to discuss this immediately - I donated at the $275 level believing that everyone who who choose that level would be getting walk-on roles, if that is not correct then the description in the KS is unclear and deceptive.
Sincerely,

Thanks to ALL of the fans and supporters of The Bay, we've successfully accomplished our kickstarter goal to shoot The BAY's season finale. :) THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. As I've said many times, YOU TRULY ROCK! Special thanks to my hard working fanclub and hard working cast and crew who endlessly helped spread the word and make it happen. Sending you love & light!

(and the entire LanyFilms Team)
awesome the goal has been met! :) Can't wait!
Congratulations to Gregori, and the cast and crew for reaching the goal. The final week word got. I love all the publicity and am getting excited about the premiere. It will be really great seeing my favs from DAYS, Mary Beth Evans, Charles Shaughnessy, and Matthew Ashford; but I look forward to all the cast, the greats of 70s/80s soaps.
Hi Sally,
As far as I know, yes, the way kickstarter works is you will be billed once we've reached our goal. If we do not reach our goal, you will not be billed. 6 days left folks. I know we can do this! Thank you all for your enormous help!

If the goal is reached, when (approximately) will I be billed, so I know when it will appear on my credit card bill?
correction "weBisodes" ;)
We are currently on our 11th wepisode folks and the sponsors/advertisers we have are helping contribute to the production of future wepisodes. This kickstarter campaign is designed to help produce the season finale as it clearly states. I'm not sure who Jen is or where she's getting her information. However, she is welcome to express herself and is not obligated to donate. Everyone else, we appreciate your support and thank you for helping us with the finale. The first wepisode will premiere Sept. 15th and webisodes will continue airing throughout the fall. THAT I can guarantee.
Once again, thank you all. For more information on the show and to see THE BAY: Confessions of the Garretts as we gear up for the premiere, please visit our website http://www.thebaytheseries.com

As stated in our actual kickstarter campaign, the 15k we're hoping to raise will go into an explosive season finale we have this the works. We are currently shooting the entire season and we need a little financial boost to give you all the "season" finale so many of you will love! Thanks again to all our backers and supporters. It means a lot to the entire cast and crew of THE BAY. You're helping make quality Soap Content! ;) - Gregori J. Martin (Creator of THE BAY)
I do not think it is a novella format it will be a series. Like any show its length will depend on its success, and money. Again, I gather that the fundraising drive -- this page here -- is for money
for the season finale and not the whole season since at least ten episodes have already been
taped.
It's the season finale for the series...not the series finale. At least that's how I read it.
What I gather is that they probably have the money for the season, but want an especially fabulous finale for the end of the season, which will make it definite that there are more seasons. The campaign is to pay for the finale.
Betty, I would imagine this is being written more as a novella than as a long running soap. They probably have it all mapped out from beginning to end. It also looks like they are only going to be able to film it if they get a certain amount of money by a specific date, since it seems to be backed by private funding rather than a big company. I think this a great idea and can't wait to see the first episode!
I'm confused. How can you be planning a series finale when it hasn't even started yet?
