hey Guys, haven't heard from you in a while... how is the film coming along?
Would be fine to hear from you again! all the best and a good start in 2012! have fun!
Are there any updates?! I haven't heard anything since you got backed...
Hi Linh Mai,
Any updates on TLC? Any 30 sec. clip would do and for the fans also. I hope all is well.
Thanks,
Nino
Any new news? or blog? twitter? :P. Just wondering how things are progressing. Good luck.
Hey Linh Mai,
I'm just curious how the project is going.
Thanks!
Jared
I'll join the others in saying Congratulations! Best of luck with everything!
Can't wait to see short film ^_^
You… MADE IT!
Congratulations Linh! Looks like a blockbuster franchise to me! If you need a promotions guy, I'm your man.
Marshon Thomas, Associate Producer
Fantastic! Can't wait to see what's next!
Congrats Linh!
Outstanding! Congratulations. ;)
Yay!
Just- Yay!
Congratulations. I just discovered Kickstarter and I have been watching your progress over the past week or so since before you reached your goal. Very exciting. It inspired me to give it a try for one of my film projects. IMPRINT-http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/44447052/imprint….
I pledged a little while ago. Best of luck. I look forward to seeing your finished product.
You have to thank Siri, The splash pic of her sold you my pledge (along with the synopsis). :D
Congratulations, Lihn. When I told you almost a month ago that the last four days are a rollercoaster ride, I never expected something like this. Well done!! I look forward to seeing the finished product. You rock!
one word for this FANTASTIC!!!!!! (60k passed)
Go for it Linh, just backed you up ; ) All the best, Marco
20 Hours to GOOOOO!!! Pledge Pledge Pledge!!! By the time those of you thinking about pledging actually decide to make a pledge it might be tooooo late!!! Lets help these guys make history!!! Again...PLEDGE!!!
Best of luck! If you need an NYC based AC... I'm your dude.
Thanks guys for the INCREDIBLE support and the kind words - just amazing, we really, really appreciate it.
@ Dennis: hey thanks for the suggestions, I will keep in in mind:)
@ Jack and Lacy: thank you, we will spend the money wisely;)
Thanks so much everybody, only 30 hours to go!!!!
Best of luck to you guys!!! Looks like you're in the clear, but I figured an extra few $'s couldn't hurt. Put all our money to good use and make what look like it could be the next big thing!!! Good luck!!!
Congratulations Linh and Crew I wish you all the best. Time to make C4D history, wish I could give more cause it looks so awesome.
Hey Linh ... thanks for the Mech preliminary drawings!
Here's my suggestions on how to go from cool to really scary:
1 Mechs are too sanitized (they look and feel like engineering drawings)
How to fix? Add insect-like "feelers" to legs and arms (ya baby!)
2 Head area is too small (and that doesn't project brute force)
How to fix? Either put on a bigger, more "living organism" head,
or enlarge torso area (no head on top) and add evil "head like"
features to torso
Linh Mai is a genius and an indie film action hero!
Dennis Dupuis, Associate Producer
Just backed the project, the idea and concept looks awesome and you seem to be dedicated and know what you are doing! I really hope you manage to make a great shortfilm and Im sure you will be successful with getting a studio to sign on for the feature film then! :) Best of luck!
@ Stephen: Thanks Stephen! Just checked your site, cute stuff:)
@ Nicolai: That sounds great, Thank you;)
@ Hero: Absolutely!:)
@Lihn Mai: I'm curious, will a digital download of the film also be available for the DVD and BluRay pledges?
@Lihn Mai: Sure, That's fine with me. As long as I know you're doing your best, I'm more than happy! I might just even raise my pledge for this great answer, and your very professional attitude :)
Linh, great to hear! Having made a small film, I realize this is only the beginning but you're certainly off to a great start!
THANK YOU!!! You guys are just too awesome - make us speechless. But it's not over, backers can cancel their pledges anytime, so we're very carefully with to be too optimistic. The funding ends next Wednesday:)
@ Philippe: You can get the artbook by making a pledge at the Collector's Bundle:)
@ Nicolai: For now only the shortfilm. The full length feature film really depends on the success of the short, in addition we'll need studio support for the feature, so it's just not possible to know in this stage if we're allowed to add your names on the credits:)
Again, THANK YOU SO MUCH for your crazy contributions!!! We really, really appreciate it!
Is the "Associate Producer"-title only in the shortfilm, or also in the feature film?
If it's also in the feature film, then I'm indeed going to raise my pledge even more ;)
Congratulations on hitting the funding goal, can't wait to see the finished product :)
Yay! Congrats!
One question: where in the rewards is the art book you mention in Update #4 ?
Or do you just mention it as something you plan on doing if the whole project gets a green light?
gratz!
Congrats on hitting the mark! =D
Way to go man! So happy for you!
So glad you met your goal, wish I could donate more before next week!
Good luck and I can't wait to see things in full production!
ACES!
;D
Congrats :-)
Done and done.
WOOOOHHHOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
Congratulation !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow 48K!!!
Soooooooooo close...
At this point if just 117 of the 147 backers who pledged $10 or $25, increased their pledge by $15 to the next level, the 50k goal would be met.
Think about it people ;-)
I would really like to see this project get funded... plus I want my art book too :-P
Good Luck!!!
This looks like a really cool project. I hope it gets the funding it deserves, and it probably will.
How do you get all these backers? My project aims much lower in regards to its budget goal, but I can hardly get any supporters. Can you mention my project, now that I've donated to yours?
