Are you a guest and have fond memories of the amiga? Then read this now.

looking over several of the replies here I can see most of you have never heard of KickStarter  or understand how it works.


it has nothing to do with Amiga or any Amiga company, so lame jokes are wasted.

I have known several people who have tried to generate money to make their films using this method. The point is that NO ONE loses their money. That is one of the intensives to encourage people to donate.

There is also the fact that this system works around The complicated laws for "INVESTING". The gov in the US has a HUGH number of regulations regarding investing (in this films). The way KickStarter works you are just "buying" something - usually a DVD copy of the film, or dinner with the director, etc.

I think KickStarter is a perfectly acceptable method of generating $$$ for this project and people misunderstanding it is just childish and silly. Grow up. If you like the project, feel free to send a few bucks. that is all.

I dont know why anyone would take on a project of this size without funding in place FIRST. That my friends is bad producing. If you are making a Commercial project I dont think its fair to hit your target market for donations. If it was some community non profit group that is alltogether different.

@ franko

I thought you were leaving? what kind of nonsense is that, now you really are the village idiot, arent you embarassed? how pathetic

it's not always possible (or easy) to get funding first....anyway, this is just one method. if it doesn't get the full amount, no one loses a thing. it's just an effort.

in fact, even if it doesn't work This time, the guys doing this project can always try again later.
If they wish.........

and, really, just ignore that other fellow.....you are just playing into his game.
