[FCP-L] Fundraising for Obama Documentary!

I am raising funds for my documentary, From 0 to 90 - Obama's First 90
Days, through a couple of crowdsourcing sites:

Kickstarter:
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/multo/from-0-to-90-obamas-first-90-days-documentary

IndieGoGo:
http://www.indiegogo.com/From-0-To-90-Obama%27s-First-90-Days

This will be an interesting test of both sites and their ability to push
donors to my project. I'd love to be able to pay my editor and pay for my
time directing/writing. There's the composing, the sound mix, the
marketing and PR, and the submission fees for film festivals. Posters,
postcards, DVDs, hotel rooms and flights, if I'm lucky to be invited to
any festivals. Websites and online social networking campaigns – all
these things either require time (mine) or money (for other people's time
and materials).

So here's to funding a very grassroots documentary about the first 90 days
of Obama's presidency! If anyone has any distribution or broadcaster
contacts who might be interested in this documentary, please let me know
at multo@multo.com!

Peace,
Melissa
