Expand commentHi Jason, I'm so there with you. I went on the treadmill from Kickstarter to the other one. I forgot the name. You're right about the order of how things will be done. How can you make your movie without the money? Kickstarter will put you through a rigorous process of pitching and justifying why your project is apart from the rest. Kickstarter has a good reputation for getting people up and running. Give it a shot. What have you got to lose? All the best, MindyG

Expand commentMindy, First of all, thanks for responding to my post. I thought about kick starter for like a minute then thought to myself, even if I do come up with funds, what the hell am I going to do with it? Being a newbie with zero connections leaves me with a script, funds and no idea of how to make this whole thing work. It's so daunting just to think about but it's still the same reason why I do it. Why not? There are people out there than can help and with a bit of luck...a lot of luck ( who am I kidding) hopefully I will find them. To me, failure is not an option. To have gone as far as I have with no degree or connections tells me there is hope. So, why not me? My idea is just as good or better than the last guy. That's what keeps me going. It's not impossible, just difficult. So why not?
Keep going Jason. You got this.

Obviously, you feel me Sidney. Similar story? Same frustrations? Same determination? What it boils down to is...give it your best shot. No one can stop you from trying, no matter who they are.
Dead on, Jason. Dead on.
