ARCADE

Our Kickstarter project took off this week! We surpassed our goal and are now pushing even harder to take it as far as we can.  The more funding we receive the better we can make this movie - we will have access to better equipment, be able to spend more time filming and more time editing, we can work with artists on animated sections (!!!!).  It will really open a door into a whole new world of creative options that Irene and I are giddy just thinking about.  We are so thankful for all the support.  Beyond the funding, all the support has given us the confidence that we can create a truly special film!! 

Here are some links to articles written on the movie this past week and a few of our favorite comments!

Laughing Squid, the legendary internet entity from the Bay Area, curated us on Kickstarter and blogged about us!!  Which Boing Boing picked up on and posted! This was a personal triumph since I am a huge BoingBoing fan.

Then I see that USA Today’s awesome pop-culture blog written by Whitney Matheson, POP CANDY, posted about us!  Whitney wrote, “I think my favorite part of that clip is the final shot, which shows gamers so absorbed they don’t notice the young couple making out in the corner. Ha!”

Ben Gilbert of Joystiq wrote a really nice piece about the Kickstarter project that resulted in 53 comments on the blog and a ton of twitter noise! Read it here.

Please, keep sharing the Kickstarter project with people! And say hi to us on Facebook and Twitter!
