Star Wars Fan Film: The Recompense

I've written about The Recompense here, and that writeup includes interviews with the creative team putting the film together. This is just a quick note to remind you that The Recompense has a kick starter project with one week left. So, now, you have to go there and kick in a few bucks!

The graphic above is the budget breakdown for the film, indicating what has already been invested and what the Kickstarter campaign will fund. Here is a note from the film's team:

With just over one week left in our campaign, we wanted to show you how your contributions, if our project is successfully funded, will affect the production of our film.

Your support enables us to finish building our sets, create the first ever live-action Bothan, bring practical, tangible effects to the film, and provide comfort and a place to rest for our cast and crew to stay in top shape throughout the production of the film.

In order to make this project a reality though, we need your support now more than ever, as we enter into our final week tomorrow.

Spread the word on social media, and share our page with friends and family. Chances are, someone you know is a Star Wars fan! Show them what we're trying to accomplish, and encourage them to contribute even as little as $1. The more backers we have, the more popular our project becomes, and the better chance we have of bringing this tribute to Star Wars to life, and having you all along for the ride.

Remember - if our project does not reach it's fundraising goal, we receive none of the funds, and this film can't be made.

Strap yourselves in.... Time to make the jump to lightspeed.

- The Recompense Team

So, here is the kickstarter you are looking for.
