Crowdsourcing

The Iron Sky did it first, and now there are others following. Well Iron Sky Prequel is one... The other is Shemar Moore's Bounce Back movie. I am not a fan of romantic (comedy) movies, because after long period of empirical research I have come to conclusion that I just don't understand them. This does not stop me from watching them in hopes that one day I happen to get them. I say what you have in romance movie you will also get in Scifi movie. 

That's not the point of this post. I am going to show some light on the two previously mentioned movies and how YOU can help them in becoming a real movie. There are few sites that are used in crowd sourcing. I know of Indiegogo and Kickstarter. I know that Indiegogo offers different types of funding; fixed and flexible. Fixed means that the money is paid forward only if the full amount is reached. Flexible means that all money collected even though the target is not reached is paid forward. In Kickstarter I think there is only fixed funding available. 

Both sites hold the idea that the general public will fund the projects and the project managers will provide supporters different "reward" depending on how much money you pledge to the project. These "rewards" can be anything from a public thank you to a role in a movie. Basically more you pay, the bigger the reward will be. 

Bounce Back is a romantic movie (hence the little rant in the beginning) in the making. This is a Shemar Moore's baby project that he is doing because of his fans. I do not know of a better reason to do something (if you have fans I mean). This is why I am giving a link to this Project (link is the previous word)!

Then I promised to tell you about the Iron Sky Prequel. Iron Sky The Coming Race actually might not be a prequel it might be sequel, who knows what it will be. Well I know it will be epic! I will see this movie when it comes out that is for sure. This time the makers have decided that they will not let anyone else say when and where to release the film, thus funding the whole movie from their own pockets and from crowdsourcing.
