We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on May 25, 2011.

The last phase

Update #6 · May 19, 2011 · 6 comments

Dear backers and supporters,


again, thank you so much for helping us raising the goal budget.

Only 6 days left - and we really must stick together more than ever.

Yes, we reached $50K, but what we should keep in mind is:

Backers can decrease or even cancel their pledge. We're still not above the line, not yet.

The fact that we've raised the minimum funding goal doesn't mean that we don't rely on your support anymore.

Few backers already decreased their pledges so we have a minus of nearly $1K in the last 2 days - come on, don't let us down on these last steps.
We're so glad that our new backers filled the hole, thank you so much guys!!

So nothing is set in stone, the funding goal we just raised together is more like a fragile card house - and the wind is blowing harder in this last phase.

In the meantime, we got so many nice responses and inquiries from artists, actors, composers, cinematographers who offer their work as volunteers - this is so amazing, thank you.

We will announce one or two new talented crew members next week:)

Let us drink some tee, staying focused and keep the champagne in the cellar;)


THANK YOU SO MUCH.


Linh and the Team

      Haha kickstarter eats to much of my money already. If I pledge it stays. Well did change a pledge once. But at the beginning of a project nowhere near the endthat would be lame...

      Sometimes people commit above their means, be it from over zealousness, impulsive behaviour or any of a number of other reasons that they come to realise at a latter date cannot be feasible. Sometimes circumstances simply change and an individual pledge may need to be reduced or redacted to avoid more serious financial problems or react to an unforeseen expense. There are plenty of reasons for backers to be allowed these actions that neither gives them power nor makes them an idiot. (my pledge won't change)

      PEOPLE CAN CANCEL PLEDGES!!!??? We shouldn't be able to cancel pledges, it gives idiots a kind of power.
