The average amount of grant from this development fund is £4500, this is a positive as it will provide us with good capital, in order to fund our Kickstarter campaign.

- 6. INITIAL CROWDFUNDING The advantages of crowdfunding is that we get an audience/set of fans involved very early on in the process. We are going to use crowdfunding as capital, to attract talented actors and the script copyright. The next slide will show a breakdown of the total funds we need from the Kickstarter and what they are going to invested into.
- 8. ATTRACTING INVESTMENT Target to achieve from Kickstarter campaign – £23,000 For the following pledge amount we will reward: £20.00 - Artwork signed by chosen actor £50.00 - On-set extra as infected £100.00 - Artwork signed by all staff and actors £150.00 - All of the above
- 9. PRODUCTION COMPANY After we attain our capital from the crowdfunding campaign we plan to take the concept (copyrighted script) along with proof that our main actor is prepared to take part in the feature film to an international production company. The success of the Kickstarter campaign will also show that the film is building a devoted fan base at the earliest stages of pre-production.
